Tit tit, no;but we did the "Que bug," which is a step routine, known variously by other names, with chants involving simulated sexual intercourse on the ground.
A story to contextualize this. In the early '80s, in my district, undergrad chapters were being suspended for lewd and lascivious step shows. In a meeting, one brother commented how he took his young son to step show and was supremely embarassed. It was too much--of course stated from the perspective of a middle age man now.
If there has been an improvement, in general, it's been that you don't see as much of this over-the-top stuff. To be frank, it just doesn't fit in with this age in which sexual harassment is defined as even oggling someone!And in which you or your org has to cough up some cash for "stupid stuff" becuase of a lawsuit.
If men can't be moved by moral suasion, the loss of money, property, or prison time can make some think twice about some activities. Ask the Kappas why they are no longer the "Playboy fraternity." Trademark infringement issues and the prospect of getting the pants sued off them by Playboy Inc. made them "read the riot act" to the undergrads and they curtailed the use of the image,etc.
