The Girl Scouts Are Suing The Boy Scouts. So That’s AWK.

The Boy Scouts have been a total mess lately.

But I mean… we should have just assumed they were done when they decided they weren’t “Boy” Scouts, right? Boy Scouts decided they were letting girls in now…. and that they’re just the “Scouts.”

Many of us asked “Wait… isn’t that what GIRL scouts are for? What about the GIRL Scouts? THIS IS CONFUSING.”

Yeah. The Girl Scouts are asking themselves that, too.

And they want the organization formerly known as Boy Scouts to STEP OFF THEIR TURF.

According to this:

The Girl Scouts’ lawsuit said the Boy Scouts of America had no right under New York State and federal law to use words like “scouts” or “scouting” by themselves “in connection with services offered to girls, or to rebrand itself as ‘the Scouts. ’”

That all sent the false message that the Boy Scouts of America were now the exclusive organization providing leadership development services to girls, the lawsuit contends.

“We applaud every organization that builds character and leadership in children, including the Girl Scouts of the USA, and believe that there is an opportunity for both organizations to serve girls and boys in our communities,” a spokeswoman for Boy Scouts of America told MarketWatch.

Basically… “you’re making it sound like we’ve joined forces. We haven’t. CRAWL OUT.”

In court papers, the Girl Scouts said the Boy Scouts’ rebranding announcement has created all kinds of brand confusion across the country.

For example, some Minnesota families looking to sign up their girls were erroneously told the Girl Scouts and the Boy Scouts have merged. Meanwhile, in Indiana and South Dakota, some parents mistakenly signed up their daughters to girls’ programs in the Boy Scouts.

THIS IS SO DUMB.

SO, SO DUMB.

The Girl Scouts, an organization incorporated in 1915, argued that if the Boy Scouts wanted to broaden their base, they couldn’t do it at their expense.

The lawsuit’s claims include trademark infringement and alleged interference with economic prospects.

My concern?
