I made it to Boy Scout Silver arrow. How far did you get?

Not far at all lol. Though since I’ve grown up I’ve slept with far more Eagle Scouts than most lesbians.
The only issues I really faced were the toxic masculinity that permeated a small portion of it and me having my ass kicked from time to time.
And yeah it was unrelated to my understanding of my queerness. Well except in certain ways. It impacted how I carry myself in the queer community. Especially giving me a tendency to lead when nobody else will.
He’ll back when I was in we were mad they were kicking out gay people and I had met the girls in other countries’ scouting orgs and was pissed at the fact that girls couldn’t join us.
