Epsilon Tau and Omicron Epsilon are the NYC undergrad chapter.

as far as being out with the bruhs...we have had several "out" parties for the bruhs and sorors at the frat house on 150th street this year alone and they have all been successful.

Doggystyles, when is the next time you are coming to NYC?

Soror,

REEEEEEACCCHHH I'm passing you the GAG BAG !!

I agree with Phasad. If we're going to break every single "connection" down and attempt to create a bond, we may as well admit that ALL HBGLOs have a "connection."
Not like it matters, but here are the connections that I acknowledge:
--Coleman Love
--Phirst Phamily
--Indiana Love
--Zeta Phi Beta Sigma
--(at least where I am) the Iotas and their sweethearts act like a "bruh and soror" connection

Gross. i have never heard of the P & G Connection in SC. and now i'm at a internship in nashville and me and my line sister have never been here before on Fisk Campus but as soon as the Bruhs knew that is was about 20 Delta's from out of town on the campus they were here quick fast to make sure that we had everything we need. they tak eus bowling, to the movies, mall, have cook-outs and most of the time just come up here and chill with us. i'm a Neo,spr.2001, and everyday i wake up i love with the love i receive from the sorors and frat. i love the Coleman Fam and never want to really know about any other "Connection"

Hello everyone,

I am a proud member of Zeta Phi Beta Sorority, Inc. So I know directly about having bonds. I cannot speak for any other type of 'bond', but the bond I have with my frat brothers is strong and true. Still, it annoys me to see people trivialize bonds to the level of who is dating who, who married who, whose colors are what, whose mascots match, etc. Can I get the gag bag next!!!

I hate when women think they own fraternity men because of these so called bonds!!! I wish people would listen to themselves.
Make believe bonds are my issue. I have even seen Gamma Rhos and members of Phi Beta Sigma throw events together under the "Sigma Bond." Hey events and co-sponsorship is their issue, but a "Sigma" Bond!!! GAAAG!!!BARFF!! Usually, when explored, these types of bonds do not truely go beyond the bed room!!!
Men are still men!!
So I still love my blue phi!!!

I am sitting here laughing! I hear you and I agree! LOL

Greek Love,
Chaos

Can I get some crackers too! I got into a heated argument with a member of Sigma Gamma Rho about their last org love or Golden Love affair. They have been trying to find some bruhs for years and the Iotas are so desperate for acceptance...they just jumped on the band wagon. I can deeply understand you sickness when you see P&G love..I would like WTF? I always saw the Ques and Deltas together because of the Coleman love thing ..not because os your colors...Golden Love Affair..yuk? Or which state you were founded in...Indiana Luv..I dated a Kappa who thought the whole Indiana Love thing was a joke..he said they dont even associate with them..Pass the barf bag!!!

Wassup Coleman Fam!
I just want to start off saying that none of us "own" a brother organization. We don't own da bruhs. I say this because (not on this thread) when I go to some schools, the Deltas are fighting other Deltas, AKAs, GDIs, even Que Pearls, for da bruhs. We don't need to fight for their attention or their respect. If other orgs. want to get close to da bruhs...ooookay...if da bruhs let them...ooookay. If they REALLY know about Edna and Frank...they recognize where the real love is http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif
I agree that bruhs usually end up with the AKAs. As I hear da bruhs say alllllll the time: you date the Delta, you marry the AKA. That's cool. I've heard bruhs even joke that Frank got tired of the dirty reds, that's why he divorced Edna. That's cool, too.
Just know that Coleman Love is only as strong as the Sorors and bruhs that acknowledge it.

OOO-OOOP Sorors!
Coleman Love, bruhs!

That's funny Deuce (dis here is Phasad)...I have always heard the Bruhs say that you date the aka and marry the soror....hmmm. Once again, varys according to where ye be.

OO-OOP!



------------------
So Smooth and So Sophisticated, Deltas Got it! Don't you Hate it? Crimson and Cream and Nine White Pearls, There's Nothing Like a Delta Girl! OO-OOP

Ditto, Soror! The Bruhs I know (from Mississippi to DC to Ohio to Pittsburgh) all share that philosophy. I do know a couple who've married AKAs, but even they admit that they always thought they'd be with a Soror.

It would be my dream to marry a Bruh for all that they epitomize, but I know that true love is blind to superficial things like greek affiliation. I'll marry the man who is sent to me by the Father. Of course, on my "wishlist" I'll ask that he be an Omega Man! (It doesn't hurt to ask, right?)

And I'm Out!

I hear that too, soror! We know it can depend on district and/or specific chapters' relationships with the sorors.
Regardless of who da bruhs marry, their ideal mate is a Delta http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif

See, you need to quit switching up on a soror. Hey, hit me on my hotmail when you get a chance, haven't heard from you in a minute (it should be in my profile).

Very well said.

I understand that everyone's chock full o' I'm-so disgusted-I-have-to-puke- jokes but there's no need to get all worked up over this. Don't worry be happy. http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif




[This message has been edited by Sexy Mocha (edited August 09, 2001).]

I don't think we're worked up. We're just having some good ol' fashioned fun with the historical Delta/AKA rivalry and the Que/Delta bond.

Personally, I honestly don't give 2 sh*ts and a rat's a$$ if the Ques and AKAs at XYZ University have a tight bond, or if the Bruhs are more likely to marry an AKA than Soror; none of it really has anything to do with me or to any of us, for that matter. I think that most of us are just BS'n for laughs and to show our Bruhs how we feel about them and OUR Bond.

"My Bad" to anyone who may have taken offense to our jokes and use of puke/surprise smilies. It wasn't that serious. http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif

411, I'm just trying to keep the situation light. I didn't want it to seem like there's some kind of hostility or rival between the two organizations. Sometimes it may appear as so. It's all good though. As long as no one is taking things to heart.
BTW, I attended Epsilon chapter's (Omega Psi Phi)picnic last week and Coleman Love was as strong as I've ever seen it!

Greetings All,

Speaking as a member of Alpha Chapter, the term "P&G Love" is in use and is not limited to chapters in NY, and I personally feel that there is nothing wrong with it. In response to a statement made earlier:

"Our bonds need to remain simple and reflective of our history. Making up all this new stuff just complicates things and dillutes our real history. Its bad enough we have to argue and fuss over who our REAL bruhs are and why we have the bond that we do, we don't need all this extra stuff"

I am in total disagreement. We live in an increasingly more complicated world. We are all working towards the same goal of bettering the black community and the world as a whole. Limiting the acceptance and tolerance of these possible "connections" and partnerships, limits our collective ability to respond to the changing needs of society. All of our organizations are beautiful and distinct in their own way and none of this can be diminished by looking for commonalities amongst us, no matter how trivial they may seem.

All of our organizations have commonalities...some based on where we were founded, principles, goals, etc. If mere commonalities constitute a "bond," we need to go on head and remember that all of our organizatins share a bond. Although I'm Delta-centric (everything revolves around DST http://www.greekchat.com/forums/ubb/smile.gif), we're all black community-centric...that's our focus.
In relation to this specific discussion, I think some of us are stressing the difference b/w a connection, commonalities, and a bond. Connections and commonalities do not (always) constitute a bond.

While were on the topic, The Ladies of Alpha Chapter, Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority Inc. and the Brothers of Alpha Chapter, Omega Psi Phi Fraternity Inc. present "a P&G affair" at the Marriot Marriot Courtyard (900 F Street NW- Washington, DC) on Thursday, October 11. HU Homecoming 2001-- be there!

I never heard of the "P&G Connection" until some Omegas approached my sorors and me in a greek shop one day. We were like WTF are they talking about? He said that was something we should know about. Well, it isn't in our history, so I guess not.

If you don't have a nationally recogniZed Soror or Frat relationship, then you are going to have regional or local connections. Why get upset? Just a waste of time and energy if you asked me. Just soak it up and move on... :rolleyes:

...thinking
 

I would have to co-sign to that one Soror PrettyKitty. The whole thing afterawhile is just soooo :rolleyes: like, do people really care about this????? Moving on...Smooches all!

Phirst Phamily 4 life babby:)

all u lovely greeks need to take it easy

:D :D :D

Ya'll need to take that MESS somewhere else....Like they say You ain't gotta go home but get the He11 up outta here with that shizzle forizzle.

hee hee
 

LMAO! :D

:rolleyes: :rolleyes: :mad:

On a serious tip I answered the question with my first post
on a not so serious tip I was messing with jihad...
but back to my serious tip, IT'S A FREE COUNTRY! :p

Being the DevaSTating Diva that I AM I will rise above the Finer Women and show some class and not stoop down to one individuals petty level of thinking.

***DISCLAIMER**** This comment reflects the opinion of #1 Leading Lady and not the opinion of DELTA SIGMA THETA INC.


Like I stated...Just take that mess somewhere else. We do NOT come up in ya'll house joking that the only bond ya'll have is because somebody ORDERED ya'll to have one. Our bond is LUV. Secondly, there is some isht you just don't joke about and this is one. Ok, ya'll are constitionally bond...big deal. We don't come in ya'll dry room disrespecting ya'll and I feel like ya'll should give us the same respect. If you can not oblige by that then STAY THE HELL OUT!!! We are not hustling members or are we hustling people to chat in our forums. Now you can take this how you want to ....NUFF SAID TAKE or LEAVE IT but believe me there is NO SWEAT off my back!!!! The ONLY sweating I will be doing is for DELTA SIGMA THETA INC.

***The sweet #1 Leading Lady has now re-entered***

What the he??
 

Since when has the Omega Psi Phi Board become the Delta board? And WHO said it was appropriate to make such nasty classless commentary certainly NOT reflective of the word SISTERHOOD? LL1you need a STRAIGHT ATTITUDE CHECK. This is not about greek life. Somebody gave you some BAD INFORMATION. IF YOU THINK FOR A MINUTE, ITS CUTE, TO DISRESPECT SO BLATANTLY THE TENETS OR CHARACTER OF AN ENTIRE ORGANIZATION, AND PREFACE THE COMMENT WITH A DISCLAIMER ABOUT YOUR SORORITY...YOU ARE WRONG. DEAD WRONG.

I have been a FINER WOMAN for nearly 11 years and NEVER have I seen such an ugly, ugly display of dis-unity in MY LIFE!

FYI...FOR ANY ONE WHO READS THIS NOTE...I AND MY SORORS WILL POST ANY WHERE WE PLEASE ON THIS BOARD OR ANY OTHER PUBLIC BOARD. We must stop this nonsensical godlike worship of our Sororities and Fraternities veiled in honor of our own organization. I know my Founders would NOT approve of such a display towards another woman...let alone another woman from the NPHC. It is UNHEALTHY to continue down these roads.

This whole thing has gotten absolutely ridiculous. It is very clear clear in these posts that many, particularly the younger members, believe, they will only sweat for members of their organization, that you have a LOT OF GROWING UP TO DO. I am calling on ALL elder Greeks to get your Sorors and Fraters in check here. We must do better than this. A SAD SAD STATE OF AFFAIRS.

By the way LL1, I have hired YOUR Sorors, and other greeks MANY times. AND THEY SWEATED HARD FOR THIS FINER WOMAN. AND I HIRED THEM AGAIN!

Ok, this has me confused.........
 

Pardon me, but LADIES.......

I'm a little confused because, I see the point of everyone being upset because they may feel disrespected but......all in the same breath that someone used to say that they felt that things were getting petty and out of line, they said....

By the way LL1, I have hired YOUR Sorors, and other greeks MANY times. AND THEY SWEATED HARD FOR THIS FINER WOMAN. AND I HIRED THEM AGAIN!

IMO,if you do IN FACT want the madness to stop, then stop participating.

Re: Ok, this has me confused.........
 

Okay, I see you missed my point. I am happy to expound for clarification.

THE WORLD IS MUCH BIGGER THAN THESE LITTLE GREEK DISS FEST WARS. I work with Sisters and Brothers in Greekdom all the time. Believe me when I say this, NO ONE CARES WHAT LETTERS OR COLORS YOU ARE WEARING IN THE REAL WORLD...ITS ABOUT WHO GETS THE JOB DONE. Its a compliment to say someone has worked hard for you and has been RE-HIRED for a job. There is NOTHING disrespectful about that.

Thank you.

I started to respond but being the Finer Woman that I am, I realiZed that such sophistry don't even deserve one because of the churlish manner in which you stultified yourself. How sad....

:(

Ladies, ladies, let's play nice here. The thread was'nt all that serious to begin with. Any dissin' was meant to be lighthearted by the original posters. I think some of the later posters took things in the wrong vein. Coleman luv to the Reds and Greek love to all.

It's sad that we--the allegedly upstanding, elite members of the college-educated black community--would perpetuate such ridiculousness. It was all just jokes in the beginning, but now that people are attacking each other and their orgs, it's not funny anymore. We all need to GROW UP! And, I say this to members (representing ALL the orgs) who've posted to this topic.

Here are the FACTS:

--There is a TRUE HISTORICAL BOND between Delta Sigma Theta and Omega Psi Phi. The fact that it is not a constitutional bond does not alter HISTORY.

--The bond isn't based on a marriage, despite want you've heard/learned.

--As honorers of this HISTORY, members of DST and Omega carry on the TRADITION of acknowledging the bond through what is called "Coleman Love."

--Not ALL members of DST and Omega care to acknowledge the bond due to non-existent or negative experiences with one another.

--If a CHAPTER'S experiences with another org are more pleasant/compatible than with it's brother/sister org, OR if a CHAPTER gravitates toward another org because it's brother/sister org doesn't have a chapter on its campus or in the area, the CHAPTER has a RIGHT to form a campus/local/regional bond with another org. By doing so, only the TRADITION for that org. has been altered-- NOT the HISTORY.

--It is not the place of any one person, chapter, or org to judge/assess the depths of the bond between any two people, chapters, or orgs. Only those two people, chapters, or orgs will ever truly know just how REAL and DEEP their BOND is. TO EACH THEIR OWN!

And I'm Out!

...this [i] discussion [/i]...edited
 

This is where all this BLUE discussion started in this thread. PLEASE READ THE TITLE OF THE THREAD!! I have never heard of Zetas or Sigmas as part of COLEMAN LUV or the so-called P&G Connection. :rolleyes: The bantering with the AKAs was all in fun but y'all ZETAS seem to take it (and everything concerning a 'bond') to a whole 'nother level. Get over it!

And yes-- there are chapters in ZPBS who don't acknowledge the bond with their sister/brother org on their campus, either because they don't have one or because of friction. Still, we all know that the ZPBS bond is constitutional. However, that doesn't mean all Zetas and all Sigmas HAVE to love each other! We are ALL HUMAN! We should always be who we are FIRST and FOREMOST! The letters should merely be a SMALL part of who we are-- not the main part. Our truest, strongest BOND should be with GOD anyway!

And I'm Out!

What amazes me most...
 

is the inability to stick to an argument. I mean has argumentative essay writing gone completely out of the door in academia????
Mess? Surely you jest. Based, on the statement of truths, what seems to be the problem? Is it a lie that there is no national recognition of your relationship? Should it suprise you or any of the members of any of the "historically bonded" :p organizations that there would be some question of validity when there is an inconsistent recognition of your "historical bond" nationwide amongst YOUR individual sorority/fraternity memberships.

You are drawing your own conclusions. Hey, you cannot please all of the people all of the time. However, being rude or plain nasty can be controlled. I 'm gonna say it again...THESE BOARDS ARE PUBLICLY VIEWED AND UTILIZED BY ALL. You have no right whatsoever to ask or demand for that matter anyone not post anywhere on these boards. I believe this site was set up initially to attract ALL Greeks... to encourage a healthy exchange amongst members and those seeking interest in Greek life.

I resent the notion that it is okay for only half of the NPHC to have an opinion or viewpoint on issues relative to one's Greek experience. My Soror PrettyKitty, was ALSO joking if you read her post.

BTW, I do believe the good Brother DoggyStyle82---the MODERATOR and BROTHER OF OMEGA PSI PHI FRATERNITY, INC. will say when people are not welcomed. (Which by the way would be silly, just plain dumb, and well RUDE. HELLO... THIS IS THE WORLD WIDE WEB and doing so, would only make his organization look bad)

If you don't like what you are reading, then I would you suggest hit that little x in the corner of your screen.

One more thing, if there is a topic that you only want "certain kind of people" :rolleyes: to respond to...have no shame...I have seen it done...put in your subject line...ONLY "MNO" RESPOND. If you are a moderator you can delete all of the other posts that do not conform to your liking...or opinion. If not, you will just have to grin and bear it like the rest of us!
