When I read "spring break mistake", I was relieved that it was only a tatoo.

I remember many years ago a tiny, sweet, painfully shy, quiet girl from one of the "good" sororities at Penn State won a wet t-shirt contest during spring break in Florida. Needless to say, this did NOT go over well with her standards board, and there was a lot of rumors that they were going to disaffiliate her.

You can cover a tattoo, but the Girls Gone Wild tapes circulate forever....

I've told this story elsewhere, but when she was a pledge my sister won a spring break wet t-shirt contest. When pulled before standards, she said "But I won! I beat a Chi Omega!" :rolleyes: :eek:

This is funny. I think it is a good thing that I did de-pledged before I started drinking. Because it's kind of hard not to expose certain body parts when drunk.

A girl being disaffliated for entering a wet t-shirt contest??? It's not like she got up on stage and flashed her vajayjay.

Not disaffiliated - brought up before standards. We'll just assume both sweet young things just didn't realize what they were doing.

Yeeeeeah. We had a similar incident happen at the local watering hole. Except in our situation, a banana was involved and it wasn't pretty.

Luckily I wasn't a part of the contest, but because I was still there hootin' and hollerin' I still got reprimanded. :rolleyes:

What I'm really curious about is why a tattoo or lip ring is the "real you".

I've never thought to define myself by my accessories and clothes. But each to his own I guess.

I wouldn't kick her out but she does deserve a little wake up call.

The story about the girl beating a Chi O is hilarious. At least she wasn't the only one who had a little too much! Haha.

That's a phenomenon I've never understood. I've had a few too many before but I've never gotten the urge to show my boobs. Maybe I'm just lazy on alcohol? It is a depressant...

As you should have been. :eek:

Accessories to a crime. :)

Oh - and she did it in HER LETTERS.:(

I was always amused by the concept of people who did things they shouldn't do on spring break and thought they wouldn't get caught. Hey ding dong, if you booked the trip through a travel agency on campus, chances are, other people did too. Chances are they're going to be on the same bus/plane and in the same hotel. And not everyone is going to keep things on the down low.

Well, what size were her tits? Way too little or way too big=bad. In between=OKAY.

Clearly, Gamma Phi has stronger programming than we do in this area. ;)

I don't understand either, but it happens. I have to limit my consumption in public places because of that reason. The oddest thing, is that I am in no way an exhibitionist sober. I avoid tight clothes, short skirts, and never show cleavage.

Hmmm, how did I miss this....

Please tell me this was a contest of deep-throating bananas, and not sticking it anywhere else.

Court TV has a new show called "Party Heat." Last night's episode was about Lake Havasu and the crazy co-eds who enjoy their Spring Break there. It made me wonder why people were so crazy acting during Spring Break.

In her letters? Ok now that is really beyond reason...seems like she could've at least had the sense to change shirts, since she was going to be showing everyone boobage anyway.


I'm not modest in general...I just don't get embarrassed easily so I don't care but I STILL never wanted to show body parts. I have no problem showing cleavage all day (though there is such a thing as classy sexy...like a cleavage shirt with a short skirt is a no no...just wear it with JEANS!...or a modest shirt with a short skirt), but they still stay in the shirt.

Maybe I really am just lazy when I drink.

Okay, NutBrnHair - you win. That has got to be the best post thus far in 2008!!!!

Chi Omegas never rest!
 

Oh, I don't know. It seems that in the intervening 20 years Chi Omegas have improved their programming in this area - note the following quote from ESPN:http://espn.go.com/page2/s/caple/020409.html



After winning a championship, football teams must douse the coach in Gatorade with the same enthusiasm and glee with which they would water down a Chi Omega during a wet T-shirt contest.:rolleyes:

I knew a girl (notice, I didn't say friend), who pledged a chapter at Ohio State midway through her sophomore year. During spring break, she did the same....entered a wet t-shirt contest. Don't remember if she won but the chapter president happened to be in the crowd.

Not only was she pulled aside, but the Pres told her she would be brought in front of Standards and would do everything to be kicked out. She was.

Seriously? :rolleyes:

Happens fairly often. A few years back, ZTA Jenna Morasca (won one of the Survivors) was nude with another female in Playboy. Prior to that she had talked about loving hazing when she was in her chapter in a Stuff Magazine interview. She might've even still been an active undergrad them. I know that other people have mentioned other greeks that have been in Playboy. (I only mention her specifically because she's the only one I know the name of)

And this matters because....?

I have trouble understanding all the panic about female nudity. Especially from sorority women. Sororities are often thought of as "pro-woman". Having this phobia about naked or partially naked women implies that nudity is somehow immoral and/or gross, and we should be ashamed of our bodies.

There is actually a famous pornstar from UofA, that was greek as well.

The chapter is now defunct, but this was early 90's apparently.

Did ya'll know that Pamela Anderson is an ASA?


well someone had to bring that one up

LOL. The Pamela Anderson who IS an ASA (we do have one, just not "that" one) probably has a concave chest and goes to church every day or something.

Boobies for the Lord.

I don't think it's the nudity as much as the context. I don't think a woman would get in trouble for, say, posing for a nude painting. Or owning a nudist resort. Or being a nudist, come to that. And good Lord - look at what some of these women wear today (grabs walker and hobbles across floor) But it is the posing as a sexual object - in a forum that is NOT pro-woman - that is the problem.

Quoting for posterity.

Also, because I'm somewhat fascinated. I honestly cannot remember a time when I felt the need to expose any naughty bits after a few. Pull up my hair, dance a little crazy, and experience nirvana, but that's about it.

Even the Miss America pageant has their limits.

I was just having a little fun!

"Chi Omegas never rest" ??!? Come on, SWT, you know it was funny! :D

Yes, it is - which is why I responded back in kind!!!:D I knew those Chi Omegas would NEVER allow their programming to be found wanting.

Nudity for art or beauty is one thing. Getting plastered and showing your boobs for beads isn't "pro-woman". I don't get it, though I don't have as much of a problem with it as some people...since I chalk it up to dumb drunk college kids...we all make mistakes...but it's still not "pro-woman".

Let's be honest. When most of us wear a low cut top who are we doing it for? It sounds good to say it's because we're confident and just being secure in our right to show our bodies in the fashion we choose or some crap like that, but it's really because Johnny Frat boy is really hot and all Johnny Frat boys like boobs. I'm all for honesty. It's ok...that's part of being a teenager or college student. Stupidity comes with the territory...I'm 21, I'm still stupid sometimes. And MOST teenage/college girls have done this at one time or another, Greek or not! But is that pro-woman?

Nope.

Dang y'all...late again. :( But, for the record...

Interesting...

well, i think i can boil it down to one statement:

tats or tits....cover them up!

See, I always thought that knees were the ugliest part of a women's body. Who every says, "WOW! Her knees are hot!"

:D That just says it all! :D

I think that all of you are making too big of a deal about this tattoo... I have one.. granted, mine is a quasi "tramp-stamp" that is easily coverable. I will admit, I was a little worried about it initially, then I found that several of my sisters had similar tattoo's. I'm sure you'll be fine. Actually one our newly initiated sisters has a tattoo on her foot, and it was never even considered.

Please read the thread beforehand. We're not discussing the effects of a tattoo at recruitment in Virginia, but at the University of Alabama. They're very different situations.

Really? I can't imagine a tattoo being looked upon kindly or just overlooked during Panhel Recruitment at UVa, W&M, W&L, Richmond. Maybe VT, but I would doubt it.

There ARE other schools in Virginia.
