Like any pop star or Real Housewife™ worth their salt knows, cornering the LGBTQ+ market can be a slingshot to success. Gay men earn more money on average than their straight counterparts and know how to put it to more fun use.
Glendale Girl Scout and new pint-sized gay icon Siena has tapped into that potential to very lucrative results. She’s taken to selling her wares throughout West Hollywood’s LGBT Rainbow District alongside her little sister, their mother, Jenn Levin, and their TV producer aunt, Julie LaPlaca (the last of whom is a WeHo resident herself).
This quartet of queens big and small have been greeted by drag queens, hungry bar patrons, and open wallets. Siena apparently sells about 100 boxes singlehandedly each weekend.
And it looks like she’s having a blast doing it:
How about we take this to the next level?

You just know the rest of her troop is jealous!

On the upside, somebody’s getting a flood of orders.
“Siena is participating in a cookie sale to earn money to support Girl Scouts and we thought, what better place to sell cookies than in West Hollywood?” Levin tells the WeHo Times.
“We were here last weekend,” she recalls. “A guy named Adam said he ate through all his boxes. He came back this weekend and said, ‘Are you going to pay for my weight watchers?’ I told him that I’m a hypnotherapist, so if he ever wants to cut back on the sweets, to call me.”
While they might be flooding the streets of WeHo with sugar and carbs, they’re also flooding it with smiles.
“I was dreading selling Girl Scout cookies, but the gays have made it so much fun that now I’m happy to drive 40 mins to sell cookies,” Levin says. “We were so excited that drag queen Billy [Francesca] bought the last 4 boxes of Lemon-ups, so mom could go home and relax with a glass of wine.”
Siena looks jubilant in her pic with Francesca, who dons a modest zebra-print dress. When asked about her thoughts on all the drag queens in the area, the little businesswoman simply says, “Yeah, l kind of expected that here.”

Sales only run through mid-March and scouts are already seeing shortages of certain flavors, so get ’em while they last!

I thought all those “gender-exclusive” organizations were “Cancelled.”

That’s because you’re another asshole who lives in a dark, damp cave.

1. Girl Scouts have long been inclusive of all genders.
2. Little Siena is breaking Girl Scout code by selling cookies in a district (WeHo) that isn’t hers (Glendale) and selling outside of bars.
3. Parents who encourage this practice are modeling poor ethics.

Girl Scouts have long been inclusive, that is absolutely correct and why I have continued to buy cookies all these years. In checking the Girl Scout web site about cookies, however, I don’t see any rule limiting sales to a participants, “district.” The word used is local. Both Glendale and WeHo are in the county of LA, so that seems local. I doubt there is any penalty from selling in one’s own county. Second, from my visits to WeHo, I am not sure there are all that many well-trafficked locations that aren’t outside of a bar. Moreover, I don’t see a rule forbidding sales outside of a bar. Thus, your conclusion seems improperly drawn. The parents seem to be following the rules and supporting their children. While I can’t speak to the rest of their ethics, they seem fine based on the evidence and reasoning you’ve provided.
Long live cookies!
