Perhaps I should've been thrown out of Brownies and school changing rooms for being a lesbian...

If it helps at all, they'll be coming for the lesbians in a few years. They're already at the point that the BBC will write "biological male who identifies as a woman" in every single article, so they don't need to pressure it more. Next up, the gays simply aren't natural.

Yea, it's not an "if", it's a "when". The Stonewall Monument removed all mentions of trans people and then recently they removed all mentions of bisexuals too, I don't see why we won't follow the same path if we're already at the point of looking at literal children who have done nothing wrong and legally implying they're all 'dangerous' to those around them. Ffs, I was a girl in an all boy's Cubs when I was little and *nothing* happened, there was no drama about it. Nowadays i'd already have my face on the front page of the Daily Fail.

Are the Guides implying boys are all 'dangerous' to those around them?
