I'm sure I know a bunch of rank-and-file sorority members who have grown up to just be . . . regular people.

Ha. I was in a sorority and am NOT crafty, at all. I was also really surprised when someone from work correctly guessed I had been in one. It was a long time ago and I haven’t kept up with anyone in many years. Not exactly sure what gave it away.

I was in a sorority and have been married 36 years. My DH has always been very impressed with my sorority's level of organization and the local and national level.

My years in a sorority gave me a great deal of leadership opportunity, longtime friendships and experience dealing with all kinds of people in closer circumstances. As an only child, that wasn invaluable.

I wasn't having sex with anyone in college; I was there to get my education and didn't want to get sidetracked. Being in a sorority gave me a lot of opportunity to meet men without having to have a steady boyfriend to knock me off course.

You and your boys were definitely gay. Not that there's anything wrong with that.

how come?

np

Sounds like the boys were really into each other's sex lives and don't seem to like women very much.

Like an MIT or UPenn sorority or a Bama sorority or a Duke sorority?
All three are VERY different.

The perfect wife IMHO.

Awful. But water finds its own level.

What do you think? I'm sure there are some exceptions but odds for most aren't as good. Its a shallow mindset.

In professional set up they tend to use skills learned there to rise above ones focused on actual work.

What makes sororities and fraternities appealing to most joiners?

They are very social. They are joiners. They like to build community. They have friends for life.

What’s wrong with that?

Most NEED social validation. Daily and weekly from social media, fans, or friends, or drama.

Sec: marriage to eat other, SAHM friends for life

Ivy: friendship and networking

other Greek life schools: friends, drinking, fun house to live in.

sorry you weren't chosen for the sorority(ies) you wanted. but don't let that define you.

So tacky. Esp the 40 yos where that is their only accomplishment.

Is an ex-sorority someone who got kicked out? Might be kind of interesting. What does one get kicked out for?

what's "awful" - being a bit snobbish is not ideal - but all those other traits are all positive, right?

Except for family oriented, The first PP described a lot of surface stuff.
