How Baden Powell Changed the World

He noted with remarkably little excitement that most boys would get married at some point. He repeatedly stated that women's bodies were repellent, just as he wrote about how wonderfully made the bodies of young men and boys were. As the boy scouts got off the ground, he engineered many opportunities to watch naked boys. Much of this happened at scout camps, where nude swimming was traditional. And in fact, during this period, the police in London ban boys from swimming naked in Hyde Park Lake. Baden Powell is enraged by this and he writes a... How dare they? My boys! What is this? You gotta put a baby in it. That's his attitude.
