Soror, in no way is being a sweetheart equal or comparative to it. No, again, I'm not comparing one to the other. But the question was posed to me as why join an auxillary group if you aren't appreciated by the people you support, because that's what they think the situation unfolds, and I in turn posed the same question back, but as a Delta or greek, but was unanswered. When I answered, knowing both worlds, I said that that it was not the case for me, nor MOST of the hearts that I know, because I do know some that have bad experiences, and some who fall into the stereotype, but it seems like you won't need an answer if my answer was already posed by the questioner, you know what I'm saying? Why ask me if you already included my answer in your question? For example, a soror asked me why I joined if I was nappreciated, and I told her that was not the case with me, and she told me that if I had read her question thoroughly, I would have seen that I was already taken care of. Okay...But what I meant by appreciated is not taken seriously by non-greeks and such, and you answered just fine soror. I agree about separating heartdom from being greek, because it just doesn't mix. I also agree about the answer for disdain for greeks, I do the same thing, because it's true, I can't please everyone. But the question was posed first, why join? And I answered, but I was met with nothing but reasons why I shouldn't. My thing is sorors, you don't have to like my decision, but just be happy for the positives it has brought to my life. Wonderful, supporting friends, great opportunities in community service, and a membership in Delta Sigma Theta Sorority, Inc. Without them, I wouldn't be a soror. No disrespect intended.
