Mark your calendars for Feb. 13. That’s the day Girl Scout cookies start showing up in the hands of adorable uniformed girls and on tables in front of Safeway.
A girl named Taylor, living somewhere in California, doesn’t want you to buy any. She, and a whole hot mess of other bigots, have started a campaign against cookies because of the Girl Scouts USA’s stance on the inclusion of transgendered girls. It all started when the Girl Scouts of Colorado issued a statement about why they were accepting Bobby Montoya, a transgendered 7-year-old, into the organization.
“We accept all girls in kindergarten through 12th grade as members. If a child identifies as a girl and the child’s family presents her as a girl, Girl Scouts of Colorado welcomes her as a Girl Scout.”
Taylor doesn’t like this one bit. She is petrified that some 18-year-old man is going to say he’s a girl in order to sneak into her tent and steal her special sash with the award-winning Fire Building badge.
Here’s her frightening video:
Update: The video has been made private. Sorry if you missed it. You can still read the ignorance here.
What a great reason to buy a shit-ton of Thin Mints.
Chocolate Covered Xanax 
Wow, I get all my cookies for free. ( I have connections) However, after enduring this girl’s video, I am inclined to buy my shit-ton of cookies.
Oh, and for the record, she disconnected with me.
Every time she said, “Quote. Blah, blah, stupid shit, blah. End. Quote,” I wanted to tackle her and give her a really bad haircut.
I wish I lived in Colorado so I could my cookies from Bobby!
I can’t even eat them without gaining fifty million pounds, but I’m totally buying Girl Scout cookies this year.
Thin mints are the only way to go. I’m buying a box for each of my neighbors.
Could this be a secret Girl Scout marketing plan to boost sales?
Ha! I so wish that was the case.
The mint ones are the best. Yum
Girl Scouts and Brownies unite! We’re in for Thin Mints, Lemonades, Do-si-dos, Samoas, and Tagalongs. Calories and svelte figures be damned. 27 days ’til Girl Scout cookie justice begins. Where’s Norma Rae and Erin Brockovich when you need them? This is a travesty.
Just found out this girl is from my homeland. She is from Ventura, CA. Nine miles from my hometown. How sad.
Sorry, that was me.
Yep. Over a month with no new posts here. Time to roll this blog up and shut ‘er down!
We should pool our orders like a co-op (or thru the co-op?) and have them shipped by the case from Bobby. Let her know that things do get better. Whaddya think?
I think that’s a great idea! Unfortunately, I’ve already bought my shit-ton of thin mints (and a few samoas for good measure,) but I fully support your effort.
