Gay boys allowed in Boy Scouts now .
Boy Scouts of America has voted to allow openly gay boys into its troupes. It took more than a hundred years to lift this ban.
It has been not easy to fight this ban. Conservative parents and churches are of the view that this is not “morally right”. There has been a talk going on among conservative parents to open an alternative organization like Boy Scouts. It could be called “character development organization for boys,”
The ban is still on for gay adults. They can’t still join Boy Scouts.
This definitely is a step up towards world becoming more liberal.
