Not really that big a deal, but when I was a little kid the Boy Scouts came to my class and talked all about this fun party they were throwing for all the kids interested in joining. They were really hyping it up, and were even giving away little helicopter straw toys to the ones who attended. My older brother was a Boy Scout, and I seriously wanted one of those free toys, so I was excited to go. However, 5 year old me had to be explained to that it was the BOY Scouts, and so no girls could go. And, that meant no free helicopter straw for me.
