There are two openly gay undergrads in the chapter I advise. No one has/had a problem with it. They kind of stick to themselves but the rest of the chapter has done an awesome job at making them feel comfortable.
Pushing the envelope even more, the two undergrads used to date each other. Ya know what, the chapter survived. They dated for about a year and then broke up. All hell did not break loose. They were just a mature and respectful of each other and the rest of the chapter as they had always been.
When I was an undergrad, as now, as long as the guy was a good fit, then it was cool. If being flamboyant and ubergay meant he wasnt a good fit, then so be it. But if there was a guy who everyone liked and was a blue chip prospect and then they found out her was gay, it wouldnt change anything.
I do remember some brothers who voted against a PNM that everyone had suspected was gay, when they had voted yes on all 32 of the other PNM's. When quized, they would never give a reason why they voted no. Their choice indeed.
