[quote=Anonymous]I would not join Junior League because of its history as a racist, classist, exclusionary organization. I am white and from the south and would not want to be associated with it. Sort of like being a member of the DAR. That said, I have heard that the DC chapter takes just about anybody. It is a huge pain the ass to be a member of Junior League. It is sort of like rushing a sorority in the sense you have all these mandatory meetings and obligations you have to do. It was invented by and for women who stayed home and had full-time maids. If you're busy with a full-time job and kids etc., I would not join Junior League. Unless you want to be really busy doing mandatory things like planning a Christmas party, organizing the clothing drive, etc., and having very little say over your schedule.[/quote]
