Dear Kaitlyn McGowan,

I read your article on gender inequality in the Boy Scouts and Girl Scouts. I couldn’t agree more. The fact that girls and boys have different badges and different requirements enforces the social construct of, “Boys should do this, and girls should do that.” I absolutely hate when people say gender equality is important but then get offended when you challenge a construct such as the Boy and Girl Scouts and how they are obviously not equal. I think if more people participated in feminist activity for the equal rights of males and females, this country may actually signify what it is supposed to one day.

Sincerely,

James Williams
