THE GIRL SCOUTS (AKA TGS/TRADITIONAL GIRL SCOUTS) and THE BOY SCOUTS (AKA TRADITIONAL BOY SCOUTS) -Co-education/Joint Alliance
Girl Scout Values and Disciplinary Plan
This document provides a complete set of Girl Scouts guidelines, values, and expectations for girls and their troop leadership. The structure emphasizes discipline, humility, and respect while fostering resourcefulness, responsibility, and composure.
It touches upon the joint alliance of TGS/TBS Linked Troops and the role that TGS plays supporting that alliance.
Core Values

Everyone who is a volunteer or member of The Girl Scouts must make a promise to obey the TGS Law and adhere to it’s primary law.
1. Girl Scout Pledge and Law:
"I will do my best to be honest and fair, friendly and helpful, considerate and caring, resourceful and obedient, and responsible for what I say and do, and to respect my betters, respect authority, use resources wisely, make the world a better place, and be a sister to every Girl Scout."
2. Girl Scout Promise:
"On my honor, I will try to serve my family and my country, to help people at all times, and to live by the Girl Scout Law."
3. Foundational Values:
The following are the foundational values of the TGS

From the moment a girl becomes a Daisy (1st Rank) to her advancement as a Troop Leader, she is bound to the principles enshrined in the Eight Traditional Core Pillars of the Girl Scouts. These values are not mere guidelines; they are the foundation upon which harmony in society and the virtues of obedient, responsible women are built.
Each pillar reflects the timeless qualities that create women of strength, humility, and purpose. A Scout’s adherence to these principles fosters discipline, grace under pressure, and an unwavering commitment to her troop and her role in the global community. By embracing these values, Girl Scouts cultivate a life rooted in responsibility, respect, and the greater good—qualities essential for creating harmony in their families, communities, and beyond.
Trust and Verification, Loyalty and Obedience, and Courage and Graciousness teach Scouts to navigate challenges with integrity and poise. Friendliness and Consideration for others as opposed to self indulgence, Preparedness, and Resourcefulness ensure that every Scout contributes meaningfully, while Respect for Others reminds her to place humility and service above personal pride. These values are what transform Girl Scouts into exemplary leaders who honor their responsibilities without complaint or hesitation, ensuring their place as pillars of society.
In every action, from the smallest chore to the largest troop undertaking, a Scout must embody these values. She must demonstrate them not only in her accomplishments but also in how she accepts discipline and embraces opportunities for growth, knowing that the harmony of her troop and society depends on her dedication.
This unwavering commitment to the Eight Core Pillars is what sets Girl Scouts apart—creating a legacy of women who lead with humility, strength, and grace.

The Eight Traditional Core Pillars of the Girl Scouts
(Just for the fuck of it, I put this whole thing in Chapter Two - people sometimes get pissed I do things like that, but I really enjoyed writing it)

From the moment a girl becomes a Daisy (1st Rank) her pledge to the Girl Scout Promise binds her to the principles enshrined in the Eight Traditional Core Pillars of the Girl Scouts. These values are not mere guidelines; they are the foundation upon which harmony in society and the virtues of obedient, responsible women are built.

Each pillar reflects the timeless qualities that create women of strength, humility, and purpose. A Scout’s adherence to these principles fosters discipline, grace under pressure, and an unwavering commitment to her troop and her role in the global community. By embracing these values, Girl Scouts cultivate a life rooted in responsibility, respect, and the greater good—qualities essential for creating harmony in their families, communities, and beyond.

Trust and Verification, Loyalty and Obedience, and Courage and Graciousness teach Scouts to navigate challenges with integrity and poise. Friendliness and Consideration for others, Preparedness, and Resourcefulness ensure that every Scout contributes meaningfully, while Respect for Others reminds her to place humility and service above personal pride.

Trust and Verification:

A Scout is not assumed to be reliable without oversight; trust is built on the expectation that her actions will be verified, she will be physically inspected, and her work and achievements graded and validated by her betters.

The extension of trust as a faith that an individual will perform as expected without need for inspection should be avoided because of the natural tendency of girls to fall short of meeting rigorous standards without accountability.

This process reinforces discipline, obedience, and adherence to troop values, ensuring consistent performance and commitment. A Scout does not resist verification; instead, she reflects gratitude to her betters for the investment of time and effort in confirming that the Scout has met or exceeded the high expectations required of her. A Girl Scout is thankful for ridicule, humiliation and discipline that is earned through their inherent weaknesses, behaviors, physical appearance and poor performance because it serves as a deterrent for failure and affirms that they are constantly accountable to be judged.

Through this constant accountability, a Girl Scout gains clarity, humility, and the opportunity to prove her worth and contribute to society. Gratitude for this process is essential, as it reflects her acknowledgment of the time and effort her betters invest in her success. It is critical that her betters not be made to feel cruel or guilty through the manipulation of their sympathy for the Scout, and that the girl affirms her understanding that all corrections, discipline, criticism and judgments are made in her best interest.

Loyalty and Obedience:

A Scout is unwaveringly loyal and obedient to serve her troop, family, and country. This loyalty is demonstrated through her willingness to prioritize the needs of others, fulfill her duties, and respect the leadership of her betters. Obedience is not blind submission but a conscious commitment to understanding her role and performing her responsibilities with discipline and dedication.

A Girl Scout never puts her wants and ambitions above the needs of her troop, family, and country. She must be satisfied when their needs are met, refraining from envy, jealousy, or selfish desires for praise, pleasure, or special treatment.

Special treatment that singles out individual girls with rewards or additional restrictions should be avoided out of a sense of fairness, that all girls are equal to one another within their given rank within the Girl Scouts.

A Girl Scout must and should seek to understand why her place is defined. As long as questions remain respectful and polite and are asked at the appropriate times, she should not fear disciplinary action or ridicule.

A Scout recognizes that personal desires or grievances must not interfere with her obligations. She must accept that her time, dignity, self-respect, ego, vanity, and effort are secondary to the needs and desires of her betters to have a harmonious society without conflict and aggravation.

She actively seeks to understand instructions and expectations, embracing her role as a servant to the greater good. By aligning her actions with the values of humility and service, and demonstrating her loyalty to the ideals of the Girl Scouts, she may find contentment.

Friendliness and Consideration for Others:

A Scout is expected to be friendly and considerate at all times, even when engaging with individuals who are rude, offensive, or hold views she personally disagrees with. She continuously seeks to expand awareness of Girl Scout values through her actions and reflects positively on the organization with her obedience and humility, whether at official Girl Scout events or during her daily life.

She prioritizes the feelings and needs of others above her own desire for vanity, pride, or personal comfort. A Girl Scout embodies explicit honesty when asked a question about any subject even of a personal or embarrassing nature. A Girl Scout reflects gratitude to those who take a personal interest in her so that they do not feel guilty or discouraged from engaging with her on any topic no matter how uncomfortable.

When facing difficult or humiliating situations, such as answering embarrassing questions, a Girl Scout remains gracious, respectful, and composed, upholding the values of empathy and service.

A Girl Scout should consider herself an extension and Ambassador to the (TGS) Girl Scout Program, and always volunteer to be part of any educational opportunity to increase awareness on any subject that supports the values of the TGS, or as directed by their Scout Leadership.

Deceit and manipulation, whether through obfuscation, misdirection, or vague or subtle language, are unacceptable. Similarly, physical manipulations—such as padded bras or excessive makeup to conceal physical imperfections or harsh features—are considered disrespectful to others and counter to the values of transparency and authenticity.

If a Girl Scout fails to act with consideration or shows disrespect, she accepts correction willingly. She uses these experiences to grow in humility and responsibility, reaffirming her commitment to the values of the TGS.

Global Community:

A Scout belongs to the worldwide family of Girl Scouts. All Girl Scouts are sisters, united in the shared burdens of obedience and service as Ambassadors of our values. A Girl Scout champions fairness among women. A Girl Scout supports fairness in the treatment of women – a rule or expectation for one girl is a rule for all girls.

Courage and Graciousness:

A Girl Scout has the courage to face all difficulties and remains gracious and obedient, even when embarrassed or uncomfortable. She accepts the natural limitations and tendencies of women, including vanity, jealousy, deceit, and physical weakness, not as flaws to remedy but as traits to manage with discipline and humility. A Scout embraces her future role as a homemaker, wife, or mother while striving to overcome selfishness, wastefulness, and indulgence through service and obedience, fostering harmony in her troop and society.

A Scout also confronts her physical limitations—less strength than men, susceptibility to emotional impulsiveness, and a greater tendency to exhibit wicked desires, lustful behaviors, and self-indulgence—by channeling her energy into obedience and service. She acknowledges physical imperfections and accepts criticism of breast or butt size and shape, facial features, unattractive or plain features, height, and lack of intelligence, that may be outside of her control as readily as she would those she can control, such as weight, hygiene, bitchy behavior, vanity, manners, selfishness, and wastefulness.

She seeks discipline to control and limit those behaviors rather than denying the inherent traits that constitute the "female condition"—a combination of emotional impulsiveness, physical limitations, and tendencies toward vanity, indulgence, and self-interest. A Girl Scout addresses these tendencies by embracing criticism, willingly enduring correction, and striving to improve through obedience, service, and humility. She does not avoid critical teasing because it is an honest and constructive feedback loop. A good Girl Scout does not believe that she is immune to the female condition and entitled to the same rights and privileges as men who do not, who are less prone to negative and annoying habits, and whose contributions to society are more significant.

Resourcefulness and Prudence:

A Girl Scout must embrace the belief that their time and resources are better managed by her betters, as she is not always the best steward of time and priority of tasks. Girl Scouts must express gratitude to their betters for taking the time to direct and supervise them in their daily tasks even when outside of Girl Scout activities.

When given responsibility over her time, she is expected to complete her assigned tasks diligently and without distraction, avoid frivolous desires for recreation or social interaction, and prioritize the needs of others over her own.

A Girl Scout must make do with what is provided or available without complaint or seeking sympathy from others. Girl Scouts embrace austerity and simplicity as virtues.

A Girl Scout refrains from coveting possessions or privileges intended for men, such as advanced tools, automobiles, alcohol, tobacco, or recreational items, understanding that her focus should remain on service and humility and not devious self-interests that were not earned. She demonstrates her resourcefulness by finding practical solutions and recycling, re-using or avoiding waste without complaint.

Examples of Resourcefulness and Prudence in Action:

Eating leftovers from others’ plates (without utensils or plates). Not wasting food that is slightly expired, tainted by a small amount of bugs or, has recently been discarded in a trash bin. Accepting less desirable or leftover food without complaint, including eating cold or bland meals that others have deemed unappetizing to embody humility and prudence.

Pushing soap-box derby cars when Boy Scouts are driving. Prioritizing resources by running behind bicycles and horses so that the men can ride and do not have to walk or run.

Roughing it without modern conveniences, such as substituting toilet paper with air-drying to conserve toilet paper, and making due in cramped, damp, and uncomfortable sleeping spaces in order to ensure that they are not utilizing resources intended for their betters.

Showering and shaving body hair in open streams even when showers are present at camp facilities in order to ensure that Boy Scouts have sufficient time to see to their own hygiene needs. Abstaining from personal items like pillows, blankets, or personal toiletries, relying on what is communal or allocated.

Using recycled or handmade clothing and uniforms, regardless of discomfort or appearance. Not having modesty about lack of clothing if appropriate laundry services are limited or unavailable. Wearing hand-me-downs or uniforms that are stretched, stained, or otherwise imperfect without complaint, reflecting humility and resourcefulness even if they will be considered uniform violations resulting in disciplinary measures.

Enduring mosquitos and bugs in camping situations, where proximity to bug screening is prioritized toward their betters. Accepting and adapting to environmental conditions such as cold, heat, and heavy rain in ways that ration environmental gear, air conditioning, heat, and shelter to their betters.

Girl Scouts demonstrate proficiency with adapted work tools by using older or less efficient tools and resources for tasks, such as manual cleaning tools instead of electric appliances, to conserve energy and avoid the impression of luxury. A Girl Scout can find 101 uses for her toothbrush in the field.

When Scout Masters, Patrol Leaders, and Den Mothers lack sufficient standard disciplinary tools to properly train and educate all Girl Scouts knowing how to select a strong switch from a nearby tree with enough flexibility, removing leaves and stems and presenting themselves for discipline is a tradition that has been passed down since the earliest days of Juliette “Daisy” Low and the founding of the Girl Scouts. Every Girl Scout must learn to complete this task effectively to graduate from Brownie to Junior Scout.

Utilizing available rope or twine for temporary binding during corrections or posture training exercises. Improvising disciplinary tools from natural or available resources to reinforce adherence to expectations. Standing for extended periods in disciplined or uncomfortable positions when seating is reserved for their betters. Balancing heavy objects like books or equipment on their heads as part of posture training or discipline reinforcement. Standing in rain or harsh weather conditions while others remain sheltered, is a demonstration of resilience and humility and adaptivity of makeshift disciplinary tools.

Prudence requires that the Girl Scout accepts corrections and resource restrictions graciously when a girl’s natural temptations toward self-indulgence become too great, and they invite additional scrutiny to ensure that their access to items that would be considered luxury wants are made unavailable to them.

By embodying resourcefulness and prudence, a Girl Scout exemplifies discipline, humility, and responsibility in every aspect of her life at all times.

Preparedness:

A Scout embodies resourcefulness and foresight by ensuring she is “always prepared” with carefully selected, practical items that meet the anticipated needs of others. This preparation does not stem from selfish hoarding or personal indulgence but reflects thoughtful planning, discipline, and humility. Her supplies—extra twine, tools, or shared necessities—are chosen to serve the greater good, supporting her troop, her betters, and any assigned tasks. A Girl Scout demonstrates her commitment to the value of service by anticipating potential challenges and offering solutions without seeking personal recognition or privilege.

Respect for Others:

A Scout places respect for others above her own desires for dignity or pride, reflecting the core values of humility and service. Pridefulness is seen as vanity, which undermines the harmony and hierarchy within the Girl Scouts. A Scout must embrace humility as a virtue, accepting corrections, guidance, and teasing without resorting to sarcastic or snarky retorts.

Fathers are the traditional heads of household and should be respected as the ultimate authority at home. The preferred form of address during normal interactions is "Sir," reflecting the deference owed to their position. However, terms of endearment such as "Dad," "Daddy," or "Father" are usually acceptable when not making a request, providing a report, or receiving discipline. The use of "Sir" becomes mandatory during formal interactions, corrections, or when the father initiates a discussion.

The Girl Scout should rise when they enter the room if possible and should not sit until given permission. They should not leave the room until dismissed or their Father leaves. The Girl Scout should not eat until they begin to eat/and/or give permission to start eating or drinking – If they are eating when their Father enters the should immediately stop until given permission to continue.

Forms of address for men as their betters are expected to include terms of respect, such as “Sir” or addressing them by their proper title and surname. This practice reinforces the importance of deference and respect for authority. Girl Scouts should never expect reciprocation as they are not peers to men.

Mothers should be addressed as "Ma'am" in formal situations or during corrections. Informal terms like "Mom," "Mommy," or "Mother" are acceptable but should never be used manipulatively to curry favor or avoid punishment. Respect toward mothers includes complying with their instructions and recognizing their role as enforcers of household and societal values.

Female Teachers and Troop Leaders, may be extended a formal Ma’am or Mrs. or Ms. Followed by during appropriate official interactions, and unless otherwise instructed by Senior Leadership of the Troop or their Father, should revert to using their first name or appropriate nickname in informal settings.

Elder and younger brothers are considered equal in rank as male authority figures within the family, based on maturity level at the discretion of the Father. They should always be addressed with respect, using "Sir" or their proper names and titles. Nicknames and informal terms are permissible only when the brothers initiate or accept them. Sisters are expected to support their brothers' leadership roles and to prioritize their needs and instructions without hesitation.

While elder sisters hold no formal authority over their younger siblings, deference and politeness are expected to maintain harmony within the family. Elder sisters may not demand formal terms of address but should still receive a baseline level of respect only from younger Girl Scouts appropriate for their seniority as defined by their Father and Troop Leadership.

Uncles and male cousins should be addressed with titles such as "Uncle [First Name]" or "Cousin [First Name]," maintaining politeness and recognizing their status as family members. "Sir" is recommended for formal interactions, especially when instructions or guidance are given.

Elder Aunts, Grandmothers and female cousins should be addressed politely, using their titles ("Aunt [First Name]" or "Cousin [First Name]") etc., or Ma’am as directed by their Father, and should revert to using their first name or appropriate nickname in informal settings.

Addressing Scout Masters and Patrol Leaders should always be addressed as “Scout Master [Name],” “Master [Name],” or simply “Sir” during all interactions, regardless of setting.
This title reflects their ultimate authority within the troop structure, and proper address ensures consistent respect for their role.

Addressing Boy Scouts of a Lower Rank, Girl Scouts must still maintain a tone of deference but are permitted to use first names or nicknames, as Boy Scouts of these ranks are considered less senior in experience and knowledge. Terms like "Sir" are not required but should be used if the Boy Scout holds a leadership role, even if of lower rank.

Just as with fathers, the Girl Scout should rise when they enter the room if possible and should not sit until given permission. They should not leave the room until dismissed or the highest ranked Boy Scout leaves. The Girl Scout should not eat until they begin to eat/and/or give permission to begin eating or drinking – If they are eating when the leader enters the should immediately stop until told “As you were” or “At Ease.”

If more than one Boy Scout is present it is acceptable to address them as “Scout (last name)”.

Girl Scouts should defer to the guidance and instructions of Boy Scouts in these ranks, particularly when the boys demonstrate leadership within troop activities. They are being trained for leadership and ambition and expressing gratitude to them for offering the Girl Scout an opportunity to assist with their education and serve is expected.

Addressing Boy Scouts of equal or greater rank should always include formal titles such as “Sir,” especially during official troop activities. If more than one Boy Scout is present it is acceptable to address them as “Scout (last name)”.

Addressing a female T.W.A.T.S Troop Leader/Den Mother, it is appropriate to address them a Tw*t or Ma’am without malice or insult intended in official Girl Scout capacities, otherwise they should be addressed to simply by their first name or appropriate nickname, unless directed by their Father (or Troop leadership in Girl Scout events).

All other males, not addressed above should still be referred to politely and with respect, with their first name, Mr. or Sir if the Girl Scout is in doubt about the role of the male. Males should always be greeted and addressed before any females that arrive at the same time.

All other females including fellow Girl Scouts of any rank, should always be referred to simply by their first name or appropriate nickname unless directed by their Father (or Troop leadership in Girl Scout events).

When faced with teasing or correction, a Girl Scout must maintain composure and humility. Argumentative or passive-aggressive responses are not permitted. Instead, gratitude for the attention and guidance provided by her betters should be evident, ensuring that such interactions remain constructive and positive. A Girl Scout is expected to respond politely and diligently to any name she is addressed as, regardless of its nature, to reflect her acceptance of humility and role within the hierarchy.

By prioritizing respect for others and accepting their role within the structure of the troop and society, Scouts embody the values of humility, discipline, and service that define the Girl Scouts program.

A Girl Scout is expected to process her internal emotions, such as frustration, embarrassment, or pride, through the lens of humility, discipline, and service. While these feelings may arise naturally, they must not manifest as outward complaints, defiance, or vanity. It is not fair to others to lash out at them to make the Girl Scouts feel better by knocking others down, or to release their pent up anger.

A Girl Scout is to never learn to shield her sense of self-worth, dignity, or vulnerability by engaging in apathy or adopting philosophies that allow them to ignore embarrassment by not caring what people say or do. The old nursery rhyme “Sticks and Stones may break my bones, but names will never hurt me” removes the ability to discipline a Girl Scout through more gentle means such as humiliation and only allows the use of physical forms of punishment such as sticks and stones.

Such philosophies undermine the effectiveness of discipline by encouraging detachment rather than engagement, reducing the Scout’s ability to grow from correction, teasing, or public accountability.

Instead, a Girl Scout is taught to accept that humiliation, when constructive, is a tool for fostering self-awareness and responsibility. By facing her emotions openly and without resistance, she demonstrates courage and commitment to her role within the troop and society. Rejecting apathy ensures that she remains receptive to guidance, enabling gentler disciplinary methods to be effective and minimizing the need for harsher measures.

Girl Scouts are also encouraged to embrace the philosophy of the founder of the Traditional Girl Scouts, Juliette “Daisy” Low. The philosophy of “Don’t like it? Tough Titty, Too bad, so sad,” recognizing that discomfort and challenges are integral to growth and discipline and that the place of women in the hierarchy is a foundation upon which harmony can be achieved and strife can be avoided by not allowing women to engage in delusions of equality to men, female empowerment, or feminism that can only lead to strife when genetic and historical evidence has determined that the natural order is preserved when everyone accepts their role.

Girl Scouts must learn to accept, and encourage the behaviors and values of the Girl Scouts without rebellion, opposition and anger or jealousy about privileges that were never intended for them. Appropriate ways to manage these feelings can be found through journaling their daily observations and activities even if their life is relatively mundane and of little interest to others.
Uniform and Presentation

A traditional Girl Scout Uniform consists of
A tan sleeveless tunic with two pockets over breasts – these pockets are expected to remain empty.
A Brownie Sash – for badges – A Girl Scout earns this upon graduating from the Daisy Program
A tan pleated skirt, traditionally a practical piece of fabric with a hemline no further down than the upper thigh, and no greater in length than 12 inches.
White laced socks or Knee High Socks (White)
Saddle Shoes (black)

Optional
Brassieres are only permitted with parental permission, and only if the Girl Scout has sufficient need (C cup or greater).
Brassieres are only permitted with parental consent and are only deemed necessary if the girl has sufficient physical development, such as a C cup or greater. If the girl is found wearing a bra without permission or when not deemed necessary, she will be subject to the immediate removal of the undergarment and subsequent disciplinary action, including potential physical correction as deemed appropriate by the Scout Master or T.W.A.T.S. Troop Leader.

If panties are to be worn, they must be thin white cotton briefs. Wearing of bikini, thong, boyshorts, or lingerie underneath the uniform is punishable and the Girl Scout is required to immediately remove panties.
No Panty Lines Allowed

Girls are forbidden from wearing panties if they result in visible lines through tight clothing. The absence of panties under certain outfits is framed as a practical choice to maintain a clean and proper appearance.

If a Girl Scout is found wearing any colored panties of an exotic cut (not white cotton briefs such as bikini, thong, or boy shorts), the uniform must be adjusted immediately. The girl will be required to remove the non-compliant undergarments, and failure to do so will result in a humbling disciplinary session with further tasks assigned to reinforce the importance of proper presentation and obedience.
Failure to meet uniform standards is not just a personal matter—it reflects on all Girl Scouts and their leadership. Girls should expect that any disciplinary action, including the correction of their attire, may be carried out in view of others in order to reinforce their understanding of humility, responsibility, and respect for authority.

Repeated or gross violations of the uniform standards, behavior expectations, or failure to comply with the Girl Scouts rules may result in group discipline. Peer pressure is considered a valuable tool for reinforcing responsibility within the troop. If one or more members fail to meet the expectations, the entire troop may be disciplined as a group. This serves to reinforce the importance of teamwork, shared responsibility, and the collective burden of maintaining discipline within the troop. Such measures ensure that the girls understand they are accountable not only to the Girl Scouts but also to one another as part of a cohesive unit. Group discipline may include additional chores for the troop, collective reflection on the violation, or even public correction if necessary.


Uniform and Presentation
1. Cleanliness and Maintenance:
Uniforms must always be kept in a state of cleanliness and neatness, free from visible stains, tears, or excessive wear that would undermine their presentation. Any damage or imperfection that detracts from the uniform’s appearance must be addressed immediately. The girls are expected to maintain their uniforms in a manner that upholds the standards of the Girl Scouts, reflecting their respect for authority and responsibility.
________________________________________
Wet Panties Due to Inappropriate Thoughts
1. Inappropriate Thoughts and Physical Responses:
Should a Girl Scout experience physical responses, such as wet panties, caused by inappropriate thoughts or behavior, this will be viewed as a breach of the values of propriety and discipline upheld by the Girl Scouts. Such physical responses are considered inappropriate and unacceptable, and the girl involved must immediately address this violation.
2. Required Immediate Action:
Upon discovery of wet panties resulting from inappropriate thoughts or fantasies, the girl must immediately remove the panties. This corrective measure is designed to address the physical manifestation of the violation and remind the girl of the importance of maintaining control over her thoughts and actions.
o Zero Tolerance for Lustful Thoughts and Behaviors:
The girl is expected to immediately correct the violation by removing any inappropriate undergarments and will be subjected to further corrective actions as deemed necessary. Failure to comply will result in further disciplinary measures in accordance with the Girl Scouts's guidelines, including public or private correction as deemed appropriate by the T.W.A.T.S. Troop Leader or Scout Master.
3. Discipline and Humility:
This corrective action, though uncomfortable, reinforces the values of humility, control, and submission to authority. The girl is expected to understand that these measures are in place to guide her development and remind her of the discipline and humility required within the troop.
Fit and Adaptability:
Uniforms from previous years must be worn, even if they no longer fit perfectly, as part of the responsibility to uphold the uniform standard. In cases where the uniform has become tight or excessively loose due to growth, adjustments must be made, such as letting out seams or tightening straps, to ensure the uniform remains secure, functional, and appropriately fitted.
• Revealing Fit:
It is understood that the uniform may, in some cases, become more revealing due to the natural growth of the girls' bodies or adjustments made to maintain a proper fit. This is not to be seen as a matter of concern, as modesty is not a right but something to be earned through discipline and compliance. The revealing nature of a stretched or improperly fitted uniform shall be embraced as an indication of resourcefulness, humility, and the girl’s commitment to maintaining the troop’s standards despite challenges.
________________________________________
Standards of Presentation:
In the course of hard work, duty, and obedience, coupled with the natural growing nature of female bodies, it is expected that uniforms will not always be pristine. The girls are required to make do with uniforms that may, over time, become increasingly revealing and less perfect in appearance without concern for modesty or discomfort.
• Improper Fit as a Sign of Responsibility:
Imperfections in fit, as well as the revealing nature of uniforms due to wear or growth, shall be seen as natural occurrences and a testament to the girl’s resourcefulness, humility, and commitment to the Girl Scout’s values. These imperfections are a reflection of the girl’s endurance in the face of her duty, rather than a reflection of personal vanity or discomfort.
• Embarrassment and Humiliation
An effective form of discipline can be the natural tendency of a girl who believes they are entitled to modesty to feel shame, humiliation and social anxiety in regards to a reduction in uniform and exposure. It is not the intent of the Girl Scouts to teach girls that they should not be embarrassed by exposure as that would remove one effective means of discipline, and leave leaders with only physical options (such as spanking).
• Lack of Modesty as a Virtue
Girls are expected to embrace the concept of not needing modesty, and not complain, whine, or modify their uniforms in such a way that they are outside the standards of the TGS to support their desire for underserved modesty. Doing so may result in corrective disciplinary action and the temporary or permanent removal of additional uniform options – such as the loss of sash, shirt, or skirt at various activities.
• Value of Dress Shoes
Traditional Scout uniforms include patent leather saddle shoes that are easily scuffed. It is expected that all Girl Scouts practice going barefoot in any situation that does not require shoes (schools, restaurants, indoor shopping) and toughen up their feet. Camping activities should always be embraced barefoot by Girl Scouts to avoid damaging/scuffing uniform shoes.
• Prohibition of Unnecessary Personal Items:
• Girl Scouts are not permitted to carry personal items such as hair brushes, makeup, or money without explicit permission from the Scout Master or T.W.A.T.S. Troop Leader. The absence of functional pockets in the uniform reflects the program’s emphasis on simplicity and discourages vanity or indulgence.

The only two pockets they are permitted on their uniform are decorative and purses are not permitted when wearing the uniform. Backpacks are permitted during camping activities.
• Shared Responsibility for Essentials:
• Items necessary for troop activities, such as grooming tools or supplies, are provided and managed collectively. This promotes a sense of teamwork and reliance on troop leadership rather than individual possession.
• Money and Spending Restrictions:
Traditional girl scouts receive no allowance, as girls are not known for wise spending habits.
Effective immediately, all budgetary oversight of girl scout troop purchases are no longer approved by the Troop Leader and must be routed to Boy Scout leadership.

In addition, all funds and inventory management from cookie sales are subject to audit by Boy Scout Leadership.
This reflects the Girl Scout’s Traditional Values of Humility, Austerity and Resourcefulness.

Humility Modesty Defined
This is the meat and potatoes of this story.

It is critical in the TGS Program to define humility and modesty.
1. Humility as Modesty:
Girls are expected to practice humility, understanding their role, and avoiding pretension or acting superior. This type of modesty is an essential moral value within the Girl Scouts.

2. Practical Modesty:
The concept of modesty does not include shyness or bashfulness about one’s body. Girls are not expected to prioritize privacy or sensitivity about their physical form. Girl Scouts are not expected to have practical modesty about their bodies.

Examples of practical modesty include:
Open discipline, such as spanking in shared spaces.
Changing clothing in communal areas when necessary.
This absence of modesty is framed as a virtue, teaching girls to focus on composure, respect, and responsibility over self-consciousness or personal comfort.

See the Discipline guide for further details.

Gratitude for Gifts, Praise, and Mentorship
1. Gratitude as a Requirement:
Gifts, praise, or mentorship, whether earned or unsolicited, must always be received with visible appreciation. This includes verbal thanks and action-based acknowledgment.

2. Use of Gifts:
Gifts must be used or displayed and may not be discarded, returned, or hidden, regardless of personal preference. For example, a shirt with a vulgar caption must be worn when appropriate to show respect for the giver.

3. Value of Mentorship:
Guidance or advice, even if unsolicited, is a form of generosity and must be acknowledged as valuable. Girls are expected to treat all mentorship with gratitude and respect.

Use of the term “mansplaining” is incredibly offensive to men, and a punishable offense to Girl Scouts. If a man dedicates their time explaining something to a woman, she should be gracious, and never interrupt.

3. Troop Leadership
Senior TGS Leaders from the T.W.A.T.S program must model the correct behavior to reflect upon all Girl Scouts (whether they are members of that leaders troop or not). They should always defer to male leadership of Traditional Boy Scouts (TBS) and not undermine male authority figures.

Effective Immediately: An Alliance between the TGS and TBS – creating a brother and sister troop by linking a corresponding troop of Girl Scouts with a Troop of Boy Scouts (AKA Den/Pack).


Technology Usage and Restrictions
1. Purpose of Restriction:
Girl Scouts are not permitted to have personal cell phones, tablets, computers, gaming consoles or similar devices at girl scout events. This rule reflects the values of the TGS program by emphasizing humility, responsibility, and self-discipline over self-indulgence or reliance on modern technology.

Laptops designated for educational purposes may be permitted, provided their use is limited to supervised or pre-approved academic tasks. The device must not be used for entertainment or non-educational activities, and scouts are encouraged to prioritize traditional study methods when possible.
2. Avoiding Vanity and Narcissism:
o Personal devices encourage behaviors such as taking selfies, self-aggrandizing, and sharing inappropriate content. These activities are counterproductive to the values of modesty and humility upheld by the Girl Scouts.
o The absence of devices fosters composure and respect, redirecting focus from personal vanity to collective achievement.
3. Reliance on Leadership:
o Girls are always under the supervision of troop leaders or designated adults, removing the need for personal devices. Communication and emergency needs are handled through these figures, reinforcing the hierarchical structure of the TGS.
4. Promoting Traditional Skills:
o Scouts are encouraged to rely on traditional methods of problem-solving and communication. By avoiding over-reliance on technology, they develop resourcefulness, critical thinking, and the ability to engage meaningfully with their surroundings and peers.
5. Consequences of Unauthorized Use:
o Possession or use of unauthorized devices will result in immediate disciplinary action, including the confiscation of the device and a corresponding corrective task. Examples may include public acknowledgment of the rule violation or additional chores to reflect on the value of discipline.
While the ban is strictly enforced during scouting events, families are encouraged to adopt technology, disciplinary, and uniform guidelines at home, reducing reliance on technology to foster humility, focus, and interpersonal engagement within the household. Scouting is 24/7, 365 days a year.

1. Permission and Purpose:
o Girl Scouts of driving age must obtain explicit permission from their troop leader or Scout Master before using a vehicle for any scouting-related activity. Driving is seen as a privilege tied to responsibility, not a right.
2. Usage Guidelines:
o Vehicles may only be used for practical purposes such as troop transportation, attending meetings, or other approved scouting tasks.
o Personal use of vehicles during scouting events is strictly prohibited to ensure focus and adherence to troop activities.
3. Parental Encouragement:
o Families are encouraged to enforce these guidelines at home, ensuring that driving privileges are tied to demonstrated responsibility, humility, and adherence to the values of the program.
Girls are considered statistically likely to be much higher risk drivers, whose carelessness leads to accidents, by limiting their driving to only necessary and pre-approved routes they and everyone around them is much safer.


Girl Scout Cookie Program
1. Purpose: The sale of Traditional Girl Scout cookies as sole source of funding for combing Girl Scout and Boy Scouts organizations.
The cookie program is designed to teach girls the value of hard work, sacrifice, and responsibility. Effective immediately, the sale of Girl Scout cookies shall be the only funding source for allied TBS/TGS troops.

The TGS will focus primarily on fund raising for TBS/TGS Activities such as camping, soap box derbies and activities chosen by the Scout Master leadership to strengthen and reinforce joint values.

No Boy Scout will be asked, or permitted to volunteer to sell or handle Girl Scout Cookies, so as not to confuse potential customers.

As a secondary focus, TGS will focus on support activities during events to ensure appropriate camp support is provided (meals, cleanliness of tents and latrines) etc. The Scout master may volunteer T.W.A.T.S and Girl Scouts for special assignments and assistance in training Boy Scouts.

2. Rules and Restrictions:
Cookies are products and not for indulgence; girls may not consume them without explicit permission.
Girls must smile, be honest, and remain considerate with all customers, regardless of personal mood or opinions about the customer.

Girl Scout Disciplinary Plan
Introduction
This disciplinary plan outlines the rules, infractions, corrections, and affirmations upheld by the Traditional Girl Scout (TGS) organization. These measures are integral to maintaining troop discipline, obedience, and commitment to the core values of humility, respect, and responsibility. The disciplinary system is designed to instill focus, patience, and teamwork while holding girls accountable for their actions.

Discipline is central to creating an environment to teach Girls, without this as the primary foundation the education is useless.
Core Disciplinary Categories
1. Infractions
Infractions are minor, day-to-day lapses in behavior or discipline that require immediate attention and correction. These are intended to serve as reminders for girls to stay focused on the values and tasks they are completing.

Examples of Infractions:
Forgetting to complete assigned tasks or chores.
Minor displays of impatience or inattentiveness.
Failure to maintain proper uniform presentation.
Speaking out of turn or showing minor disrespect.
Corrections for Infractions:
Infractions are addressed through minor, immediate disciplinary actions that emphasize obedience and humility. These include:

Humiliation Tasks: Girls may be asked to repeat tasks using personal items, such as cleaning a surface with a toothbrush.
Standing in Uncomfortable Positions: Holding two Girl Scout manuals out straight while balancing one on the head for two hours, with restarts if the manuals fall.
Short-Term Suspensions: Temporary suspension of bathroom or eating privileges for up to two hours.
Corner Time: Standing in the corner for up to 30 minutes.
Uniform Loss: Temporary removal of part of the uniform, such as shoes or sashes, as a reminder of humility.
Minor Physical Discipline: Ten swats with a paddle or hand.
2. Corrections
Corrections address more significant lapses in behavior or attitude. These involve situations where a girl fails to meet expectations or engages in behaviors that disrupt the troop or disrespect authority.

Examples of Corrections:

Arguments between girls within the troop.
Talking over male authority figures during meetings.
Failure to follow specific instructions or repeated minor infractions.
Displays of arrogance or entitlement.
Disciplinary Actions for Corrections:
Restricted Movement: Use of ropes or knots to restrict movement during assigned tasks, reinforcing obedience.
Increased Swats: Physical discipline of 20 to 50 swats.
Significant Humiliations: Tasks that require humility, such as being asked to crawl across the room to retrieve an item.
Longer Endurance Tasks: Holding heavy items, balancing, or maintaining a posture for up to four hours.
Loss of Privileges: Revocation of minor privileges, such as snacks, breaks, or social interaction, for a set duration.
Enhancements to Minor Disciplinary Actions: The same infractions, but with the addition of physical elements like clothespins applied to the nose or other non-harmful areas to heighten discomfort and reinforce focus.
3. Punishments
Punishments are the most serious disciplinary measures and are reserved for severe or repeated violations. These now require the verification or approval of the Scout Master or a designated Scout Master Delegate to ensure fairness and appropriateness.

Examples of Punishable Offenses:

Direct defiance of authority or troop leaders.
Repeated failures to meet corrections after prior disciplinary actions.
Severe displays of arrogance, rudeness, or dishonesty.
Maximum Punishments:
Extended Physical Discipline: Spankings exceeding 50 swats, administered in controlled and approved conditions.
Public Correction: Girls may be required to apologize or explain their behavior in front of the entire troop.
Major Endurance or Humiliation Tasks: Tasks designed to reinforce the gravity of the infraction, such as cleaning an entire meeting area on hands and knees or completing labor-intensive assignments.
Temporary Isolation: Up to four hours of supervised isolation to reflect on their actions.
4. Affirmation
Affirmation is a designed to proactively instill discipline and humility, rather than react to behavioral infractions. These tasks serve as regular reminders of the Girl Scout’s obligations and help prevent complacency or arrogance.
Routine reinforcement though recitation and acceptance of a girl’s place in the hierarchy, is not intended to be seen as a “punishment” and has no connection to behavior. Affirmation should be seen as a positive reinforcement of the value system – saying the affirmation verbally out loud can help make it feel ‘real’ and be truly adopted.
Examples of Affirmation:
Reciting the Girl Scout Pledge: Girls may be required to stand and recite the pledge in unison as a reminder of their commitment. The expectation would be 15 minutes of exposition in an uncomfortable and humiliating position in full view of the other Girl Scouts and any Boy Scouts to set an example of their commitment to the value system.


Inviting Teasing: Girls are encouraged to openly accept and invite teasing from fellow Girl Scouts or Boy Scouts for physical or behavioral shortcomings as a form of humility training.
Disciplinary Homework: Tasks such as writing essays, completing additional chores, or repeating prior corrections.
Endurance Challenges: Assignments similar to corrections but with a proactive focus, such as holding a pose or completing tasks to build patience.
Positive Reinforcement
While discipline is central to the program, positive reinforcement is used to encourage exceptional behavior and adherence to values. Rewards are small but meaningful and are designed to acknowledge achievements while maintaining focus on humility and responsibility.
A Girl Scout should not rely upon positive reinforcement as their primary reason for adherence to the values and pledge.
Examples of Rewards:

A single cookie or dessert item.
Two scoops of ice cream during a troop gathering.
Two hours of recreational time, such as television or games.

Conditions for Rewards:

Exceeding cookie sale quotas

Achieving straight A’s in approved educational classes.
Perfect attendance and behavior at troop meetings for a specified duration.
Demonstrating exceptional leadership or teamwork within the troop.
Positive endorsement from Scout Leader or Male Authority figures
Appropriate and truthful confessions of other females who have misbehaved with supporting evidence.

Conclusion
The Girl Scout Disciplinary Plan serves as a comprehensive framework for maintaining order, instilling discipline, and promoting humility within the Traditional Girl Scout (TGS) organization. By balancing disciplinary measures with positive reinforcement, the plan ensures that girls grow into responsible, respectful, and obedient members of the troop and broader community.
Families of Girl Scouts are encouraged to adopt the Disciplinary Plan at home to continuously instill the values when the Girl Scout is not attending official activities.

Nice work on the GS traditional values and disciplinary plan.
Interesting set of rules, badges, etc.

I am working on Chapter three today. The first two chapters changed quite a bit. I wanted to take my time and build up the world by having things occur that help define why things work like they do here.

I also wanted to put excerpts of the Girl Scout Handbook throughout the story.

Today, I made this title page. Quite a few Easter Eggs on this title page. I'll be honest, I added the mud sculpture though mostly because it made me laugh. These are all AI photos that I in turn enhance myself in various ways. There is no "auto-make it like Eddie" button.

A shout out to Perseus for the inspiration to others, which in turn inspired me. Hopefully that's okay.

[EddieDavidson]

I also made this one; fun bonus points if you can catch all the Easter Eggs I stuck in this one.

(Hint: try as I might, none of the eggs could fit up their butts)

Note: None of these characters are in the story, they are generic Girl Scouts I created.

Chapter Three

On Saturday, there was a ready stream of customers and no shortage of people looking to buy cookies or ogle the three of us. My mom is definitely an attractive woman, and she doesn’t usually mind the attention. I am not as much of an extrovert as her, and my sister may TALK a big game about having sex with random hot guys – but she is definitely shy until she gets to know you.

Most of our interactions were short, quick, and mundane. They’d pay cash or through the app on my mom’s phone. Most cookies were five dollars a box. Now and then, we got some weird requests or strange customers. I think those are the only ones worth talking about.

The first was the kind of guy who is actually a pervert that we’ve come to expect selling Girl Scout Cookies. They come in all shapes, sizes, and colors. This particular guy was an older gentleman, thin, no beard, grey hair, button-down shirt, and beige trousers. He smelled of Poligrip and Werther’s original candy.

I could feel his stare when he first saw me and started walking toward the booth. I felt like a sheep waiting for an old wolf to come devour me. I was stuck behind the table, waiting to sell another box of cookies; so I couldn’t exactly run for the hills.

“Hello, Sir, what can I get you?”

“You can let me see those cute little titties under your shirt, and I'll buy three boxes of thin mints!" He flashed his false teeth at me in a lusty grin. I looked over at my mom to see what she wanted me to do.

As I unbuttoned the first clasp, my fingers fumbled slightly, both from the Florida heat and the awkward weight of the old man’s leering grin. My face flushed deeper as I avoided looking directly at him. “How long do I have to stand like this?”

Mom didn’t even look flustered. “Go on, Hailey. Open it up enough for him to get what he paid for,” she replied evenly, this was no big deal to her at all. “It’s three boxes—no need to be stingy about it. You don’t have much to look at. Give him all the time he needs.”

The old many plopped a twenty for the boxes – a tip of a whole five dollars. “She’s a good girl,” he said, his voice thick with amusement. “She listens well and does what she told.”

“I try to raise my girls right, Sir,” Mom smiled at him politely.

Alex stood off to the side, and seemed to shrink into herself, her shoulders tight as she adjusted the cookie display for the third time. She shot me a quick glance, her face as red as mine, but she didn’t say anything. I could tell she wanted to disappear into the pavement. I don’t think this guy was into big boobs because he would have asked to see my sister’s chest.

This wasn’t the first time I’d unbuttoned my shirt at Publix, I didn’t cry or act like a spoiled brat throwing a tantrum. I smiled at him and made eye contact for a few seconds before looking down and counting the boxes of Lemon-Ups on the counter just to have something to do while he got his jollies.

Behind us, a woman pushing a stroller passed by, her attention focused on her phone. She didn’t even look up. A couple of teenage boys walked by, laughing loudly, but their chatter drowned out anything they might have noticed about our booth. The parking lot bustled on, indifferent to what was happening.

“Can I have a picture with the pretty girl? Those perfect little nubby-bubbies are too pretty not to capture forever!”

I was mortified. I could imagine this was the point that handsome boy from earlier, or my brothers strolled up to catch me flashing my open shirt. I was just thankful he didn’t want me to take the entire thing off.

“She’s not a celebrity or anything, as long you don’t give her a swollen head, that would be fine ….If you want to make a donation to the Girl Scouts, Sir,” Mom smiled sweetly at him – making it pretty obvious that she was not going to give him a dollar amount.

“How much are we talking?” he haggled like I was an old rusty lawnmower he was thinking of buying, while I stood there flashing my tits to anyone who wanted a look as they exited the grocery store.

“I guess it depends on how generous you are! She’s not going to have sex with you, if that’s what you are asking?” Mom was pretty clear about that. She’s had us pose for pictures before – and we’ve been propositioned plenty of times, but she’s never said yes. I am not sure if she would one day.

As horny as I was – I still didn’t want anything to do with this old geezer. He offered twenty bucks, and Mom said that would be worth a few pictures with me.

“Great, hop up on my knee little girl, you can pretend I am Santee Claus,” he said as he handed her the money and his phone. The old guy grabbed a lawn chair that was for sale just outside of the store and called me over to him. I groaned a little. My mom told me to play nice. I walked over and, smiled at him, and sat on his knee, facing my mom.

“Tell Santa Claus everything your little heart desires for Christmas,” he grinned as he wrapped his arms around me, and touched my boobs. His cold hands were calloused and wrinkled, and his fingers shook a little. I wasn’t sure if he was nervous or just old.

“I’ve been naughty,” I told him that I wasn’t getting anything this year – a running joke in our house.

“Naughty girls can get anything they want from this Santa,” he stuck his tongue in my ear. I made a disgusted face.

“Hailey! You ruined that picture! Stop squirming and smile,” my mom insisted that I do it over. After the snaps, he goosed me under my skirt with his fingers. The most embarrassing part was that he got me wet when he jabbed his fingers into the back of my skirt.

I buttoned up and tried not to blush.

“Oh my god, stop your pouting! You don’t have any chest for anybody to see, and you made forty bucks for the troop in about five minutes. At 7 dollars an hour, which would take about 8 hours after taxes. You got off easy.”

Yeah, really easy. I frowned as I buttoned up and returned to dealing with customers – most of whom had just witnessed me sitting on “Santa’s Lap”. Mom saw no big deal with any of that because from her perspective it was like touching my elbow – I wasn’t even developed enough to warrant his interest.

Another old man ambled up to the booth. I could tell from how he approached that he was interested in my sister. He made a beeline for Alex and drank in her body. “Well, now, what’s a pretty thing like you doing out here? You look sweet enough to eat without all these cookies.”

Alex shifted but kept her polite smile. “Good afternoon, sir. Can I help you pick something?”

“Oh, I’m sure you could help me with a lot of things,” he said, leaning on the table. “But let’s start with cookies. What’s your favorite? Wait, no, let me guess... Samoas, right? Sweet and sticky?”

“Yes, sir,” Alex answered softly. “I like Samoas.”

Our job isn’t to talk dirty back to the customers, but when a guy starts talking like this, we both know he’s not really interested in those kinds of cookies—he wants ours.

“Figures,” he said, picking up a box. “A sweet girl like you probably has a sweet tooth. You ever let a boyfriend feed you these? Bet you’ve had plenty of boyfriends.”

Alex flushed, glancing down. “I’ve had a few.”

More than a few! My so-called “shy” sister loves sex and has been around the block more times than I have.

“How many’s a few? Come on, sweetheart, don’t be shy. How many guys have you been with?”

My sister was already blushing and looking awkward. That was a pretty forward question to just come right out and ask. I was dealing with a woman around his age who wanted a few boxes of Caramel cookies, so I couldn’t intervene. I wouldn’t have known what to say anyway.

“What’s going on here?” my mom interjected. We were busy at the booth but all standing close enough to one another that there was no private conversation. The old man instantly shrank and probably felt like my mom was going to chastise him for being so forward. “Is Alex giving you a hard time, sir?”

“You might say she is making me hard, yes,” he grinned. “We were just having a pleasant conversation while I pick out some cookies.”

“Alex, the nice gentleman is considerate enough to ask you some questions. I expect you to be honest and forthright. What are the six values of a Girl Scout?”

“Um, honesty, respect, caring, responsibility, resourcefulness, and concern for others, Ma’am,” my sister repeated the values that we’ve been taught since before we ever became Brownie Scouts.

“Are you being honest, respectful, considerate, and showing concern for others right now?”

“No, Ma’am,” Alex put her finger in her mouth. She is a smart girl, and she’s not infantile; she just has an oral fixation, and when she’s nervous, it’s a habit.

“What did he ask you?”

The old man was about to deny it, but he doesn’t know my mom cares more about honesty than she does our pride or privacy. “Um, he asked if I ever let a boyfriend feed me cookies and if I had many boyfriends?”

“I was just making conversation,” the old man backpedaled.

“That’s fine. I don’t see what the big deal is, Alex. Answer his question,” Mom placed her hands on her hips stubbornly.

“Um, just three boyfriends, maybe. I seldom ever date boys more than once, and no, I’ve never had anyone feed me these cookies. I am not allowed to eat them.”

“What if I buy her a box, Mom?” the old man asked politely.

“That would be really nice of you! But I don’t like to spoil my girls. Do you mind if I limit how many she can have each day?” Mom asked. “Sir, may I ask your name?”

“It’s Don,” he was happy to offer it. “Sure, I wouldn’t want to interfere with how you raise your daughter, Ma’am! You seem to be doing a great job.”

“You can call me Julie and thank you! I am trying, but these two knuckleheads make it hard sometimes. What do you tell the nice gentleman, Alex? And you can have one box of Lemon-Ups because they are the least expensive, and we have a hard time selling those.”

“Thank you, Don. That was very thoughtful of you!” Alex was genuinely excited. I was jealous. I’ve been selling these cookies for most of my life, and I’ve never tried any of them. Mom told him she’d be right there if he needed her and politely excused herself to help me with my sale.

“Is your mom very strict?” Don asked.

“Yes, kind of,” Alex replied.

“She obviously loves you a lot to spend so much effort on you,” Don gave her a warm smile.

“Yes, I love her too. What else can I get you?” she asked.

The man picked out three boxes of a variety of cookies, made my sister add it up, and then decided to change his mind. That can be frustrating because we were taught to add up every sale three times before we quote the customer. It can also be time-consuming, but Don seemed to have all day. While my sister mumble-counted with her mouth open, he stared at her cleavage popping out of the tunic.

“That’s eighteen dollars, sir!”

“Eighteen, huh? Well, what about if I swap out the Thin Mints for two Caramel?” he asked.

My sister dutifully started over, adding up the price, and it went on like that for a few minutes. I lost track because I was busy with a customer of my own.

“So, you had three boyfriends, huh? Have you gone all the way with any?”

“Oh yes,” Alex replied without hesitation.

“You like sex, huh?”

“I do,” Alex blushed, put her finger back in her mouth, and had to re-count the man’s latest choices because she lost track and got flustered.

He chuckled, leaning closer. “So, what gets you going? What makes you wet enough to let a guy have a chance?”

Alex froze, her mouth opening and closing as her blush deepened. All it took was one glance from Mom to know that she had to answer honestly.

Alex’s voice wavered as she finally spoke. “A thumb in my butt, or play with my nipples,” she admitted. “Those will usually turn me on.”

The man barked a laugh. “You like to do that to yourself or when a guy does it to you?”

“It doesn’t matter who does it,” Alex admitted. “It could be me, a girl, a guy, I guess.”

“What about this pretty girl next to you? Have you ever made out with her?”

“Not really. That’s my sister Hailey.”

I waved politely at him. There was no way to hold a genuinely private conversation at the cookie table. My mom and I could hear every word that was spoken, and so could the customers that perused the table. The man didn’t seem to have a filter, though—because he continued with his lascivious questions.

“I’ve heard of some girls who kiss their sisters,” he grinned wickedly.

“I’ve kissed my sister plenty of times. I haven’t, uh… made out with her. I guess there is a difference?”

“What’s the difference?” he asked.

“Making out is when you get on the couch and use your fingers to play with each other and grind and do heavy kissing, isn’t it?” Alex asked awkwardly.

Mom didn’t put a stop to the questions, even though they were deeply personal. We rarely had anyone ask us questions like this, and usually, they’d stop after one or two. I felt like this guy was interviewing my sister. He changed his order again and watched her count up the price of each box before changing his mind once more.

“Do you like going down on guys or girls better?”

“Guys,” Alex said without a second thought. Mom didn’t seem surprised or shocked by that. I wasn’t surprised because I knew my sister was orally fixated, and that’s why she kept sucking her finger while she was nervously answering his dirty questions.

“I’ll bet you’re good at it, too. You swallow, or are you a spitter?”

“I swallow,” she whispered. It was kind of fun to watch my sister squirm a little. I was thankful I wasn’t being put on the spot. I also knew it was futile for my sister to think somehow she could whisper and our mom wouldn’t hear the question. Alex was lucky that no other customers were standing nearby because she still had to answer.

“Alex, you’re not answering a question about national security. Speak up so everyone can hear you. You were obviously proud of how you like to go down on boys and suck their dicks. Are you a spitter or a swallower?”

Alex’s cheeks burned a deep red as she stammered. “I—I said I swallow, Ma’am.”

Mom crossed her arms. “Do you think Don is asking a question that’s too personal or private?”

“A little,” my sister admitted.

“Alex Marie Tucker! Do you think that you need secrets? You’ve already admitted to him you like sucking cocks!” Mom raised her voice slightly. She never did that with men – only other women and usually just us. “Remind me about the Girl Scout values, was it honesty or secrecy?”

“Honesty, Ma’am,” my sister blushed. Don seemed mildly amused that my sister was being put on the spot and not at all concerned that Alex was getting dressed down. I dealt with a customer who walked up while all of this was going on – hopefully, he wouldn’t freak out and run off.

“Then what’s the problem?” Mom continued, her voice calm but firm. “You’re not saying anything that goes against the truth, and you’re not breaking any rules. If I catch you whispering, I’ll assume you are trying to tell him something that you think I shouldn’t know and talking behind my back. How do you think that’s going to go for you?”

Mom had a point there. I hadn’t thought about it like that. Whispering was somewhat pointless at the booth, with us all being so close to one another.

“Not well, Ma’am,” Alex said.

Mom turned to Don, offering a polite smile. “Thank you for your patience. Sometimes my girls need a little reminder about what’s expected of them. The least expensive box of cookies that you choose today is on the house. How is that?””

“Oh goodie,” the old man was giddy. He was already do change his order again.

“Did you hear my daughter’s answer to your question, Don?” she asked.

“Not particularly, I am a little HARD….of hearing,” the old man made a dirty joke.

“Alex, what repeat his question, and what the answer was so that this man can hear it,” Mom insisted.

“Don asked me if I liked going down on girls or guys better, and I said guys, and then he asked if I spat or swallowed, Ma’am. I told him that I swallow.”

“You disgusting little tramp,” Mom frowned and shook her head. She apologized to Don and the man I was finishing up with who had just purchased a box of Thin Mints. “Address your elder as Sir or call him Mister and his last name– not by his first name. You aren’t peers.”

“Yes, Ma’am,” my sister admitted. She asked Don if he minded giving her his last name if he had more questions for her.

Don grinned, clearly enjoying the situation. “Last name’s Prichard, but you can just keep calling me Don, sweetheart. I like how it rolls off your tongue.” He glanced at Mom with a wink. “Don’t think she minds much either, do you, Mrs. Tucker?”

Mom remained bright and cheerful when talking to Don, even though she was being so strict with my sister. “Mr. Prichard, if you’d like to be addressed as Don, that’s your choice, but I’ll insist Alex ask your preference properly. She’s not your equal, and it’s not her place to assume.”

Don gave a grin. “Fair enough. Don’s fine by me. No need for all that formality.”

Mom turned her gaze to Alex. “You’ll call him Don because that’s what he prefers. And remember, it’s a courtesy extended to you, not a right you’ve earned. Show him the respect his age and position deserve. He’s a customer, and he’s shown you the courtesy of asking about you – the least you can do is be fully honest and respectful.”

“Yes, Ma’am,” Alex said quickly, glancing up at Don with a shy smile.

Mom’s attention shifted back to Don. “I appreciate you voluntarily spending time with my daughter. I am sure you have better things to do than delve into what a young bimbo likes to do under the covers when she has more freedom than she does good sense, Mr. Prichard.”

Don said that he should probably make up his mind on the cookies he wants and not be so nosy. He'd have probably left right after he said that if my Mom hadn’t continued to talk to him.

Mom’s attention shifted back to Don. “It’s not every day someone takes the time to ask her questions that make her think before she speaks. Feel free to ask anything you like—about Alex or even about Hailey or myself,” Mom said with a measured smile. “It’s a valuable learning experience for her, and I’m grateful you’re helping her reflect on what she does, why she does it, and how it looks to others.”

“I am just a bored old man with a little time on my hands,” Don perked up at her words, his grin I should probably have just made up my mind what cookies I wanted and be on my way, but since you are offering, then I may just do that.”

“That’s up to you, Mr. Prichard. We are here all day anyway, and the girls have nothing better they could be doing than learn a lesson from a kind gentleman like yourself,” Mom assured him politely and sweetly – like he was doing us a favor and not just trying to hear my sister talk about dirty stuff she enjoyed doing.

“Really?” Don brightened like my mother had just made his day. “I wouldn’t want to waste the opportunity. I am curious, Mrs. Tucker. How exactly are my questions teaching your daughter a lesson?”

Mom patiently explained, “You’re showing Alex, and by extension, my nosy daughter Hailey, who has been eavesdropping on your conversation, what it means to be considerate when someone takes an interest in her, and you’re giving her an opportunity to learn honesty even when a subject makes you uncomfortable.”

I blushed a little – Mom was okay with other people overhearing our conversations, but she frowned at me when she called me out for eavesdropping. There was no way that I could ignore the conversation.

“Too often, girls her age think they can hide behind modesty and secrets. But I’ve always taught my daughters that if they’re ashamed to admit something, they shouldn’t be doing it in the first place. Don’t you agree, Mr. Prichard?”

Don gave a slight nod, his grin still fixed in place. “I suppose that’s fair. Honesty is a good quality to instill.”

Mom smiled warmly but didn’t let up. “Exactly. Alex needs to understand that she doesn’t deserve privacy for things she’s proud to do. I’ve always told my girls that if they’d be embarrassed to tell a stranger about their choices, they shouldn’t be making them. And frankly, girls don’t need modesty. Secrets only encourage them to believe they’re entitled to privacy or discretion, and that’s not how they’ll learn to be honest with themselves or others.”

Alex and I knew this was my mother’s belief, and we’d been raised to believe it as well. We didn’t just pay it lip service – we still believe it. It was the traditional way that girls had been raised for years.

“She’s also learning to stay composed and gracious, even when embarrassed by admitting her lusty desires and the naughty things she does when she is allowed more freedom than she has good sense.”

My sister blushed and looked down at her feet. I handled a quick sale of a single box of cookies.

“Humiliation is far better teacher and kinder than flipping her over my knee and spanking that fat bottom of hers.” Mom gestured to Alex. Don smiled profusely at the mention of spanking.

“Show Mr. Prichard what I mean, darling. Turn around and hike your skirt up,” she said. My sister blushed and obediently turned and lifted her skirt revealing her big wide bubble butt. At least she was fortunate enough to wear white panties today – I had nothing on under my skirt.

“Imagine if any time I needed to teach my daughter a painful lesson, all I could do is spank that fat, jiggly bottom covered in padding? I’d break my paddle and wear out my arm, because she needs extensive education and constant supervision.”

“It’d be an exercise in futility with all that padding,” My mom said but admitted she still tries to reach us through corporal punishment as well because there is a point when we aren’t ashamed of even the naughtiest of behaviors. “I use every tool at my limited disposal, and one is to simply have an honest conversation with a nice gentleman.”

Don wasn’t really paying attention to my mom. He stared at my sister, holding her skirt up high in the back.

"Girls like her don’t deserve modesty. . if Alex has a shortcoming, or a flaw, or a bad habit, how can she expect to do anything about it if she can't even admit it to herself? You’re helping her understand that honesty and openness, even when it stings, are virtues she should embrace. She has a big ass and showing you that as well might make her decide to take more steps and work off some of that flab. Panties down to your ankles, please."

My sister obediently bent over at the knees to avoid showing him her asshole and pussy and slid her panties around her ankles.

“Do you have a big, chunky ass, Alex?” Mom asked without looking in my sister’s direction.

“Yes, Ma’am.”

Alex was fortunate that at the moment that no one walked out of the Publix exit – or else they would have seen her big, pale ass mooning them by the Girl Scout cookies table.

“Jiggle your fat butt, and shake it, for Don,” she said before asking, “Would it be less humiliating if you had a smaller, cute butt like your sister and your butt cheeks didn’t clap back and forth like that?”

“Yes, Ma’am.” My sister repeated.

“Do you see what I have to deal with? Barely a response that tells me she really understands what I am teaching her,” Mom complained about Alex’s shy response. I knew why she was shy – she was utterly mortified. “Do you want to pull up your panties, or would you like to answer Mr. Prichard’s questions like you are?”

“Pull up my panties, Ma’am,” My sister responded quietly, obviously mortified.

“You may but, if I catch you whispering, waffling or, or lying, then I’ll make you stay like that until Mr. Prichard has finished teaching you a lesson. Now, thank Mr. Prichard for showing an interest in you.

My sister eagerly pulled her panties up, “Thank you, Mr. Prichard, for helping me learn and showing an interest in me.”

She quickly composed herself, while my Mom greeted the next person to come out of the grocery store – they JUST missed the free show of my sister’s bottom. “You can ask me anything, Don. Did you want to change your cookies now that you have a free box?”

He quickly showed her his new choice of cookies and pointed out the credited one. Don seemed a little confused that he only got the cheapest box for free. My sister isn’t the greatest at math, and she struggled to give him a new price.

After watching Alex fumble with the math and thanking him shyly, Mr. Prichard smirked and leaned in slightly. He was now far more comfortable just coming right out and asking her a naughty question. “Tell me something, Alex. Do you like sitting on a man’s face with that big, beautiful butt of yours?”

"I’ve never even thought about it," my sister admitted, her voice a mix of disgust and embarrassment. "I mean, I’ve had men ask, but… wouldn’t it crush them? Or, I don’t know, wouldn’t it stink or something?"

Alex had a good point, but hopefully she wipes her butt and it’s not THAT stinky down there.

Mr. Prichard chuckled, leaning just a little closer. “Well, that depends, doesn’t it? Maybe some men like the risk—or the stink. You’d be surprised what people enjoy.” His eyes lingered on her just long enough to make her squirm before he added, “But that’s the thing about trying new things, Alex. You won’t know unless you’ve got the guts to do it.”

Alex didn’t respond—her face went blank like her brain had checked out, leaving her standing there with nothing to say. I could see why my sister’s eyes glazed over. What exactly could you say to a comment like that? Mom shot her a sharp look, clearly unimpressed by her hesitation.

“Um, so did you have any other questions or want to change your order?” she asked, clearly uncomfortable and concerned Mom might make her humiliate herself again to teach her a lesson in not being cordial to a weird old man and answer all of his horny, perverted questions. He grinned, clearly enjoying her discomfort.

“Good girl,” he said with a wink, straightening up and grabbing a box of Thin Mints. “Actually, swap this for Lemon-Ups. No, wait—make it Samoas again. On second thought, let’s do two Samoas and a Thin Mint. No, just one Samoa. Keep up, sweetheart, I know you are a girl, but you aren’t very bright are you?”

Alex’s hands fumbled with the boxes as she tried to keep track, her cheeks still bright red.

“Mr. Prichard?” my mom said, coughing politely to get his attention. “My daughter is not very bright, but she’s a bit too dumb to know she isn’t very smart. That’s why I taught her to count up the cost of your order three times and then count up the cost of the boxes there again. With the free one I threw in, it’s taking her a lot longer. Do you want me to handle this for you, Sir? I am not that good at math either; none of us are.”

Don tilted his head, clearly enjoying the moment as he leaned on the table. “Oh, no, Mrs. Tucker, I think she’s doing just fine. It’s quite charming, really, watching her work so hard to keep up. Take your time, sweetheart,” he added with a sly grin directed at Alex.

Mom gave him a polite smile. “Well, you’re kind to be so patient, but don’t let her pretty face fool you into thinking she’ll get there any faster. If she trips over herself, just holler, and I’ll step in.”

My sister looked a little nervous, but she managed to shrug off being called stupid. “Actually, I have my Mathematics badge in Girl Scouts,” she finally added in her own defense.

“Honey, the bar is so low for girls and math, you only need a D or higher for one-grade period in basic Math to earn that badge,” Mom chuckled. “Just take the L and accept that we’re not cut out to be mathematicians. When God was handing out brains, he gave them to the guys with the cocks, and you ended up in the boob line.”

It is a bit of a back-handed insult to give us an award for getting at least a D in our math classes. Almost every Girl Scout I know has the Mathematics badge. My brothers patronized me when I first came home with mine, because I was so happy to have another badge.

In retrospect, they were right to do it. I’ve been able to get D’s almost every semester since I’ve been in school in the basic Math and Science classes that are available to girls.

“I’ve heard so many blonde Girl Scout jokes,” Don said with a grin. “I figured it was just a stereotype that you were all brainless bimbos.”

“Oh, I love those jokes,” Mom giggled. “There’s probably some truth to them.”

“How can you tell if a Girl Scout has been using the computer?” Don asked. Mom and my sister both shrugged, saying they didn’t know. “The joystick is wet!”

I didn’t get it, and neither did my sister, but we all laughed anyway—it’s only polite when a man’s trying to entertain us. Don lit up like he was the most popular guy on the planet. I guess that’s one of the positive things about scouting. You can make other people feel good about themselves. He got to laugh at us – but it’s not like we were going to shrivel up and die because he had a little flash of my sister’s panties and teased her.

“Hey, Alex, have you heard this one?” Don’s laugh was annoying and scratchy. “A guy is out one day in the woods and sees two Girl Scouts. They have cute little asses, so he sits down to watch what they are doing. One of them, she’s got huge knockers like yours. She digs a deep hole, working in the hot sun and sweating. The other Girl Scout is flat chested and grumpy, like your sister, what’s your name, Honey?”

“Hailey, Sir,” I replied politely.

“So, as soon as Alex, the Girl Scout, finishes digging that hole as deep as she can, here comes Hailey and she starts to fill it back in immediately. She pats it down nice and flat, and they start the process over again, just digging holes and filling them back in.”

My mom’s mouth hung open in anticipation of the punch line to come, and I have to admit I wanted to hear this one.

“So, my friend walks up and asks them why they are doing that, and they say that normally there are three of them out there planting trees in the woods, but the girl that puts the trees in the hole got lost in the woods, so they started without her!”

Mom laughed a little too hard, more at Don’s enthusiasm than the joke itself. “I guess some tasks don’t need a point to make sense to us girls, do they?”

Alex pretended to get it and laughed as well. “I guess the punchline’s supposed to explain why I get the shovel and Hailey just stands around?”

I wasn’t sure what the joke was supposed to mean, either. “How come we didn’t just leave the holes until we found the other girl to put the trees in?”

I knew we weren’t really in the woods when I asked the question. I was merely asking why our characters in the hypothetical situation didn’t at least do that much.

“We should probably have gone and looked for that girl!” Alex stuck her finger in her mouth with a look of concern. I assumed the joke had gone over my sister’s head completely.

“Where was I in all of this? I would have made the girls put the tree in before they filled up the hole!” My mom added with a stern look at the two of us like we had really done something that stupid. I wasn’t sure how much of this was my mom pretending to be an airhead or not.

“You were probably back in your bedroom, digging in your own hole with your fingers and wondering why they smell like poop when you are done, Julie,” Don’s sarcasm and intent were pretty clear on the joke.

“Mister Prichard!” My mom flashed the old man a lascivious smirk. “I think everybody goes digging in that hole when they want a quick thrill, don’t they? Even men.”

Don was shocked that my Mom was so forthcoming. She told him earlier that we had to be honest, but I don’t think he believed her.

“Wow, I didn’t expect you to be so blunt,” Don seemed quite pleased.

“We women are natural liars, but the Girl Scouts teaches absolute honesty. I told you earlier when you were asking Alex those questions that you were helping reinforce that value. My daughters and I have to answer you truthfully, even if it’s humiliating or embarrassing. That’s a big part of Scouting!”

“I’ve always thought of honesty like a fart, it’s sometimes better to keep it yourself,” Don laughed dismissively. “You really are serious, huh? I thought you guys were just telling me what I wanted to hear so that I’d buy more cookies.”

“Only if what you want to hear is the truth, we aren’t allowed to be rude when we tell someone a truth about them, but we aren’t as polite when we talk about each other. If you want to smell my fingers for poop – you are welcome to have a sniff, Mr. Prichard. I don’t think you’ll smell any of my butt on my fingers.”

She offered him an opportunity to smell our fingers, but he declined. I’ve often found people don’t believe Girl Scouts do more than pay lip service to total honesty. It’s probably easy to assume because most women really are natural liars.

“What good is making up lies about ourselves to sell cookies? The cookies are yummy and sell themselves, Sir. I raise my daughters to be fully honest with everyone and to have no modesty. I am not ashamed of that.”

“That’s kind of sexy, are you single?” Don smiled like he had a shot with my mother. She’s a beauty queen compared to this old man.

“No sir, I am married, and I don’t cheat on my husband. I am sorry.”

“That’s where you are lying. You aren’t sorry you can’t fuck me,” Don seemed vulnerable for a moment.

“That’s true; I am sorry that I had to say something that may hurt your feelings, Sir. You’ve been very engaging and considerate!” My mom apologized.

When I first became a Girl Scout, I was excited to talk to everyone and anyone that wanted to talk to me. My mother has never met a stranger. I wouldn’t say she is an extrovert, but she isn’t shy and she’s always warm and friendly to people that engage her.

I took after my mother’s example and fully embraced the Girl Scout’s code on honesty and being considerate to others. I still do, but over the years, I’ve had to reveal a lot of nasty, dirty things about myself whether I want to or not.

My sister has as well. It’s actually been good for her because I think she’d be much more bashful if she wasn’t required to talk to people – even creepy old men. Don is relatively harmless, and even though his jokes went over my head – It wasn’t unpleasant to speak with him.

My mom believes that just like girls don’t need modesty, we also don’t need secrets.

This is a passage from the Girl Scout’s Handbook that I’ve been reading a lot lately.

Girls Nature to Deceive
Excerpted from the Girl Scout’s Handbook Pg. 326

“Women don’t need to practice deceit and manipulation because we perfected it a long time ago.”
-Juliette “Daisy” Low
Founder of the Girl Scouts

The Girl Scouts’ policy of total honesty ensures that every girl confronts her natural inclination toward deceit and overcomes it through rigorous discipline. By rejecting privacy, deceitful attire, and secrecy, Girl Scouts learn to live fully exposed—flaws, fears, and all.

The natural state of undisciplined women is to engage in dishonesty. Just as girls are born with pussies, they are also born with the natural ability to lie without blinking, continue eye contact, and convince themselves that the lie was justified. Only a few men who become lawyers, salesmen, and politicians ever reach the levels of dishonesty that come naturally to females.

Honesty holds up a mirror to who you really are. It has the power to trigger frustration, resentment, hurt, or anger in others. However, lies can be even more painful and destructive than truth. A Girl Scout must deliver the truth fully, explicitly, and without omission when asked, regardless of how embarrassing or humiliating it may be.
Honesty about oneself or other women: Full exposure of flaws, wicked habits, perversions, or jealousies.
Honesty toward others: Delivered with deference and care when addressing men or leaders.

Confessing ones flaws, secrets, disgusting desires, wicked habits, perversions are encouraged at Girl Scout events and at home, through routine affirmations. Admitting one’s hatred, jealousy, envy of others is a healthy outlet as long as it is done respectfully toward men.

Open Dialogue, Even in Discomfort:
Scouts are taught to answer any question fully and explicitly, even if it embarrasses them. No subject is off-limits. Whether asked about their desires, habits, or secrets, they must respond truthfully.

Girls must be prepared to not only deliver truth, but to receive it – bluntly, crassly, and without concern for their modesty or feelings.

If someone asks for the truth, a Girl Scout must deliver it fully and explicitly. It is trained from day one of entering the Program Daisy and constantly reinforced through regular discipline and constant supervision to ensure that a Girl Scout cannot maintain secrecy or deceit.

[EddieDavidson]

I made a "controversial" decision to include some aspects of the Girl Scout's handbook that I feel do the exposition of the world building well in the early parts of the story.

How do people feel about it?
(constructive only - so please don't say "Go touch grass/you suck/your writing sucks - yes, I know this. Trolls have informed me).I am more or less looking for simple preference.

As an example, a few of you expressed concern that teenage boys would say something about farts when looking at butts.

I've been a teenage boy, it's literally the thing we do, at least I did and my friends did, and it's one reason I didn't try anal sex until much later. "Get Brown Eye! Are you crazy?"

Now, when I think back on hot, sexy girls who offered to do anal that I turned down - I kick myself. However, in the course of the story I wanted a bit of a coming of age/maturity that once they had their good look and got used to it -they matured and evolve as characters.

It may take some more time, for some. Me? - I've never gotten fully over that stage of developmment. I was looking at a waitress yesterday. She had a sexy Brookyln accent. Walking around the pizzeria with other New Yorkers who are hitting on her "You know how to make me blush, Saul".

I am not sure what he said to her, but I assumed it was something about something about shoving something up that hot, big fat ass of hers. She was thick - perfect fat droopy tits, and a huge mouth. She's very aggressive in how she talks - you can just picture her only sucking a cock ONE WAY - and that's ALL the way, if you know what I mean.

Still, all i could think about was that ass of hers. I could imagine her naked - and how much lung power/solarplexis it probably took to just blast a fart between those butt cheeks with any hope of it making out from between them. There has to be six inches from the hole to freedom -that it has to travel past and given how tight her leggings were - and how her cheeks were so tightly clenched together, I'd imagine you really have to blast the bugle to not have it fizzle in the chamber.

I am old, and I still think about stuff like that, so some of us never grow up. That's why I can write fairly authentic teenage boys. I don't write for the sensibilities. I write what I think would actually happen, and if I saw my sister's bare ass for the first time - i'd joke about farts.

These scouts will mature, even if I didn't - but that's part of the growth of characters that I reflect in my stories. I am enjoying writing Hailey.

She's the opposite of a "Mary Sue"

A Mary Sue is a fictional character who is unrealistically perfect and lacks flaws.

You've all seen the stories, she is the most popular girl, olympic level soccer player, everyone loves her, perfect appearance, speaks seven languages, because why not.

I put that up there with bad Star Trek fan fiction as a trope. In lieu of a nuanced personality; "His name was Jim. His parents were Admirals/Researchers (take your pick or both) on a research station that was destroyed when he was a kid. He was raised by (alternate culture, so he gets to have all that culture plus be human), and is Half Klingon-Half-Romulan-Half-Vulcan-Half-Ferrengi-Half-Cyborg, so he has all the best of those races as well, but none of the limitations.

Hailey is a C student, believes strongly in the modesty aspects of Girl Scouts, and doing what she is told, isn't a rebel, isn't snarkily laughing as an outsider at the way things are, isn't secretly a genius - she's just someone who lives in this world. She isn't inherently bad, or good - she isn't a bitch who deserves humiliation, but she also believes (like her mother) that humiliation is actually a humane form of discipline compared to physical spanking.

Which is the central point of this story. I will be honest - i don't know where this one is going. If I plan an epic it's never an epic, and it feels like work. I am just letting the character tell me where to go. It'll probably end up at a Girl Scout Jamboree, but outside of that I have no idea.

As a side note, I am still not sure this qualifies as a "modesty" story. The modesty stories I've read are shorter and tend to be third person narrative, usually hyper-focused on one particular theme of a girl who is used to having privacy, losing it. This is not really that - it's more that she's grown up in it, now what.

I am rewriting chapter one today a bit and chapter two. I am taking out some of the exposition in the form of the guide book, but not forever. Just going to sprinkle some back later.

A while back, as many of you know - I was hit hard by two trolls on the page. One is gone (I hope) and the other has left me alone. I really have no reason to complain. I am still gunshy about asking for feedback, because according to one of the people "I thought you wanted me to tell you feedback and so I said your story sucked, and you should go outside and touch grass"

I am disabled to the point that I no longer "touch grass" with my feet. It came at a time right before Christmas when my health was suffering, financially suffering and this reality of touching grass was just recently hitting me.

Writing is a cathartic way to live through the eyes of the characters and 'touch grass' through their eyes.

I made a vow to myself years ago before Bookapy and Amazon made it easy to self-publish; I never want my work behind a paywall.

It's probably not good enough anyway, but that's not the reason. The reason is simple.

There were authors before me, Vulgus and notably a fan favorite here Hooked6 that inspired me to write. I wanted to give back to a user community and inspire the next generation of authors to write as they had me. I had dirty ideas, and a computer - so why couldn't I write a story?

Other than lacking even MS Word at the time to spell check, I managed to write over 200 stories. I want my work to at least inspire someone else to give it a shot "If that dumbass Eddie can do it, then so can I".

it's a selfish goal, because I want to read the kind of stories that I would write.

I don't feel I am inspiring anyone to write.

Which is what makes it hard sometimes to get excited about finishing/continuing a story.

[mavfan1]

I'm enjoying the re-writes and personally I didn't say boys don't joke about farts, it's just that fart talk, bodily smells, and more crude language aren't my thing, that's a me problem not yours. I even remember seeing a Monty Python film when I was maybe 12 where there are animated figures that hold trumpets up to their butts to play them and I thought it was crude, not funny. When I was at camp at 13 and a girl had her bathing suit bottom pulled down and a bunch of us saw her ass nobody was talking about farts, "poo-holes" etc. I can remember reacting and laughing at fart sounds as a kid but whether it was an ass I saw while skinny dipping at a pool when I was a teenager or when I saw a bunch of bare asses when some girls streaked a college party, it never crossed my mind what their asses smelled like or what came out of there, but you do you! It was more "She has a firm, fit ass I wish I could squeeze". Keep up the good work and take it wherever you like. It doesn't matter that some readers might skip a passage here or there.
