either rethink the way she states her opinion, or hopefully, reconsider the way she feels and either reaffirm it, or make a new conclusion

Which is what I said. you must not read very well! And the one in question from page 3? If you look at the question, her tone is to imply that most blacks that join non-BGLO's are selling out, do you hear that when you read it. Her saying that not ALL is like the way of saying that there are a few exceptions, but those are exceptions and not the general norm. Now, such being the case, she said that she sees no reason for that blacks should join historically white GLO's, but that is just her opinion, and many people actually do mingle better with white people, though she doesn't. That's perfectly fine, but for her to imply that because they are more comfortable around white people, that it resultingly means that they are 'selling out' is ludacris, and so my questions, which I implore you to reread, my lovely, simply asked if she didn't join her sorority because she felt comfortable there, and the general undertones were that everyone should join where they feel comfortable, and the pressures that DZrose spoke of, were epitomized in her reaction, that these black girls/guys are 'selling out' for joining something with a tradition of being white, that they are, actually working for the world that many people simply speak of.
So, my lovely, if it's your opinion that I do not read well, that is wonderful, or if perhaps you feel I'm overanalytical, that too is fine. However, dear, make sure you read well. I enjoy when someone is firm in what they believe, it's the basis of my fraternity, while still being open to accepting new ideas and philosophies. I've learned much discussing with you, Ideal and DST in our verbal wrestling matches, there is much I can take away from the talks that we've had. All I have done is ask questions to make her reconsider her thought process, and unfortunately she refused to do so openly, but silently, deep down, has definitely reconsidered, and I think she realizes that she didn't mean that exactly as she implied it. I know you are intending by now to come at me on the one exposed opening I've given you, that much of this is my interpretation, and perhaps my question should have been 'give me clarity' but instead, I was a little more precise, and asked direct questions. Is there fault in that? Give me Clarity is such a vague question
But hey, give me clarity.
