7-year old boy wants to be a Girl Scout. Should he be allowed?

Bobby Montoya is a 7-year-old boy from Denver. Unlike a lot of young boys, Bobby has no desire to join the Boy Scouts. Instead, he wants to be a Girl Scout.

We first saw Montoya's story over at 9news.com. The NBC affiliate reports that when the boy's  mother, Felisha Archuleta, tried to sign her son up for Girl Scouts, a troop leader told her no.





Archuleta spoke with 9News about the incident. "I said, 'Well, what's the big deal?' She [the troop leader] said, 'It doesn't matter how he looks; he has boy parts, he can't be in Girl Scouts. Girl Scouts don't allow that, [and] I don't want to be in trouble by parents or my supervisor.'"

Reporters with 9News contacted  Girl Scouts of Colorado about Montoya's application, which prompted the group to release a statement: "Our requests for support of transgender kids have grown, and Girl Scouts of Colorado is working to best support these children, their families and the volunteers who serve them. In this case, an associate delivering our program was not aware of our approach. She contacted her supervisor, who immediately began working with the family to get the child involved and supported in Girl Scouts. We are accelerating our support systems and training so that we're better able to serve all girls, families and volunteers."

We placed a call to Rachelle Trujillo, vice president of communications at Girl Scouts of Colorado, for further clarification. She replied with this statement: "Girl Scouts is an inclusive organization, and we accept all girls in kindergarten through 12th grade as members. If a child lives life as a girl and the family brings the child to us to participate in Girl Scouts, Girl Scouts of Colorado welcomes her. Girl Scouts of Colorado respects the privacy of all girls and families we work with. When a family requests membership for their daughter, we do not require proof of gender, we respect the decisions of families."

So it would seem that Bobby will get his wish. Gender-identity issues are becoming more common, especially among young children--which makes it more likely that the policy of the Girl Scouts will face future tests in the months and years ahead.

ANTM Week 5 Michael Jackson Photo Shoot - Spoiler!

So, if you've been watching America's Next Top Model Cycle 17, then you know that this is the All Star cycle with previous non-winners back.  The photo shoot for the upcoming week had the ladies dressed up and posing as Michael Jackson.  Now, I could be slightly crazy or recollecting something that didn't really  happen, but I do think I saw in previews that LaToya Jackson is the guest.  Maybe she was on something else.  I dunno.

Alexandria

I don't hate it, but its not giving me Michael either.  The clothes say Michael, but her pose does not.

Alison

Uhhh, no.  Not at all.  This outfit is from when Michael was black.  And again, I don't hate it, but its not Michael.  However, Alison usually does well in the other challenges.  I don't think this will send her home.

Angelea

This is so tired.  Like its Michael with no oomph.  Its too soft.  Michael was soft, but he performed hard.  This photo has no energy.

Bianca

Now, I love Bianca, but I don't love this pose.  It's like her upper half and lower half are doing Michael, but they shouldn't be doing those things together.  Michael didn't go up on his toes with his hands in his pockets, but I do remember him dancing that way.  And like Angelea's photo, I think this one also lacks energy.

Bre

Now Bre killed it and if Tyra doesn't call her first, then she is truly blind.

Dominique

I don't quite know what I think of this one.  I don't think she got the pose so much as she looks the most like Michael.  Again, there is some oomph missing in this pic.

Kayla

Now this is another of my favorites.  Second favorite out of the bunch. 

Laura

Laura is another who usually has great pics, but this one is just okay.  Actually if it were not for the next pic of Lisa, I'd send Laura home.

Lisa

Oh Lisa, your zaniness has gone way too far this time.  This is a hot buttery mess.  She looks dow nright stoopid!  Have you ever seen Michael Jackson do a herkie? 

Shannon

Not the worst, but not the best and not Michael Jackson.  She reminds me more of guitar player Slash.
