Scouts Go ‘Girls v. Boys'!!

It is a matter of pride among the young American girls and boys to enrol as "Scouts" and fulfil the duties of vigilant and responsible American citizens. It is the young American Dream to be a part of the Girl Scout USA ("GSUSA") or the Boy Scout America ("BSA"). The Scouts have been bifurcated gender wise since the very inception of the concept- for over a century. They are known for imparting leadership skills and instilling a sense of responsible citizenship amongst their Scouts all over the world.

The GSUSA has registered "GIRL SCOUTS" trademarks while the BSA has registered "BOY SCOUTS" trademark. Thus, even though both GSUSA and BSA use the term SCOUTS as part of their core trademarks, the two Scouts, have always co-existed since they work for girls and boys separately.
