So what about the girl scouts, is that also discriminatory?

Yes, there was an entire supreme court case about that 30 years ago, a lawsuit against the Boy Scouts I might add.

That was against the boy scouts but the reverse lawsuit hasn't been filed against the girl scouts to my knowledge.

That said, law in the US and one’s opinions on what constitutes discrimination are different things.
