Who Sells The Cookies

So we see the traditional setup with cookies being sold on the street corner by the Girl Scouts.

My daughter says to me, “Why is it that only the Girl Scouts sell the cookies, while the boys learn outdoor and survival skills?”

Good observation and I didn’t have a good answer, except thinking to myself that sexism is unfortunately still alive, well, and institutionalized in America.

I’d be interested in hearing a comment from a representative of these organizations as why this biased, sexist nonsense continues, especially at a time when we have a viable women candidate for President of the United States (2016) — what gives here? ;-)
