Several boys only organizations or programs have changed to accepting all genders. Meanwhile, most girls only organizations or programs have remained girls only.
This is right wing nonsense right here ^
What you just said (even if it were true, which I don't actually believe to be the case) what you said is NOT-infringing on anyone's rights.
These programs exist specifically in fields where women and girls are underrepresented. Why would boys need, for example, an additional chess club program or an additional computer science educational option when they often are the dominant gender (by far) in these courses? If that's not what you are referring to, please provide a few examples.
You're right, there should be open enrollment for everyone.
So what? That has nothing to do with anyone's rights. Girls are facing having their body autonomy stripped away and the best you can come up with for boys is that they don't have boys only orgs at school anymore?
Conservatives are so fucking soft.
