I think that women who are less ambitious (save the frat queen or like title) resent corporate women, or even just women who are able to get along well in the corporate world - as PP proves. Frats and sororities don't teach you the real world skills, mostly the party skills - which are not so valuable after one leaves undergrad.

Wow, why the double standard? Do you say that about the frat brothers who sleep with someone different every night?


Do you honestly think one poster has or originated this double standard? Time to wake up to the real world. Life is not a frat party.

Not at HYPSM - the girl "chosen" was not respected at all.


Well not at my highly ranked non Ivy private. I was not a frat sweetheart but the girls that were chosen were highly respected. And did not sleep around.

Not if the Rally Girls are attractive. I know one "sweetheart" that actually followed/stalked a frat guy across country after graduation when he got transferred for a job. She literally called him up and said "guess where I moved?!" Same girl was with (yes, that kind of "with") another dude one party and well, they didn't look at each other the next day. Awkward! So, they just kind of around.......like leeches or something.........

Anyway, to answer your question OP, no I would not want my daughter to be one of those because it is essentially a hanger on at a frat house.


Are you an adult? This girl was young and stupid at the time. I'm so sick of judgmental women. Maybe they were poor choices but why not just leave the judgment aside?


DP. Hey, I'm all for not being harsh on other women, but if those young men are responsible for the decisions they made, then so is she for hers.

She was old enough to make the call; she was old enough to be responsible for not being so stupid she couldn't make it.

Just one question: For the female perspective this is supposed to give, older sisters (vs little sisters) are not an option, eh?


Okay, good luck raising your obnoxious "girl boss" who everyone finds insufferable and becomes some work from home office nobody. While the "sweetheart" plays a more traditional feminine role, maybe studies education or nursing, and at the same time bags a rich boy who's heading to law or medical school.


Nice self-own.

LOL. This narrative is hilarious. Is this what you keep trying to tell and sell to your husband? He doesn't buy your BS either.

Man don't want some ditzy sorority chick, and more than they want a frat girl (putting it very, very nicely).


You don't know many quality men, apparently.


HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAA


You sound "quality" /s


Bitter, party of one. Your table is ready.
