Is it only in the US in which Scouts are called Boy Scouts? It's just been called "Scouts" here in Australia for as long as I can remember, I was a member about 20 years ago and we had quite a few girls in our group back then.

it seems like most countries have moved to co-ed programs. I know it's just been "Scouts" since i was a kid 20 years ago in Canada too.

Not sure, for boys it goes cub scouts then boy scouts. But there'a an analogous girls organization that goes brownies to girl scouts.

I've not a clue what the girls organization does at meetings, but they're famous for selling thin mint cookies and being overtly over sexualized to teenage boys.

Yeah my troop had plenty of girls in the mid 90s.
