No, same issue. Don't get me wrong, we had scout leaders and scout mothers, but the scout mothers never came around in our tents, showers, etc.
If we're gonna have gay scout male leaders, then they should follow the same protocol as a scout mother. However, they play seperate rolls. The issue is simply sexual tension shouldn't be a part of this activity, because scouts often have to expose their sexuality.
To me this is obvious, I wouldn't let my daughter travel, camp or sleep with a male leader because of sexual tension, nor would I let my son do the same with a gay male or s8 female. Scouts should be as sexually neutral as possible.
