I understand that being part of a greek organization we have to hold ourselves to a higher standard but why do I need to work out inside instead of outside with some of my sisters infront of my house on a nice day. Being on a sports team is different I understand but why do we have to be not just 5% or 10% more carefull but 100% and 200% more carefull for the people who are ignorant to what they see.

Actually, you did sign up for that. Remember when you JOINED the women's soccer team? Athletic practice is almost a guarantee for an athletic activity. It is a requirement for membership. Although I've only participated in one ritual, I'm going to go out on a limb and say that Greek organizations do not have a similar athletic requirement to be a member
And you don't HAVE to be 100% or 200% more careful (although I'm confused as to why you chose those percentages, exactly), you just have to think like a non-Greek.
