All of the women in my family are Sigma Kappas except for my younger sister, who is a Theta. (There's no SK at her school.) I didn't really feel the pressure to go Sigma Kappa, my family, especially my mom just wanted me to find my home.
I do think being a 3rd generation legacy hurt me with some chapters, I think they assumed that I'd go SK and that I was an easy person to release. That said I love my org and I'm happy that my mom, g'ma and aunt were able to come to my initiation. Six of us showed up for my cousin's initiation this past spring and it was a blast!
If I have a daughter or a son, I'll make the same rule my parents had for me, you have to go through recruitment, get all the information and decide if it's for you. If not, that's fine, you don't have to do it. I just want them to make an informed decision, because you never know what can happen. One of my best friends was fairly anti-greek, then she saw how much fun I had and I convinced her to go through recruitment our sophomore year. She found her home and was a huge asset to her chapter.
