I am a ZETA lady, and I always new that we were the only sorority constitutionally bound to a fraternity before I became greek. At the college I attended, it was rumor that DST and the Ques were a brother/sister organization, the Kappas and the AKA's, but never did I hear about the Kappa's and the Sghro's. This is one of the reasons why we shouldn't believe everything we see and hear. We need to do the research for ourselves. I have love for all of my greek sisters and brothers.

Um, Discrete, yes, Zeta is the only sorority that has constitutional brothers, but there are several traditional bonds. These are the standards:
First Family (AKA/APhiA)
Coleman Love (Delta/Que)
Indiana Love (SGRho/KAPsi)
All of these bonds have historic and traditional significance. Sigma Gamma Rho did not just get up in 2001 and decide, hey KAPsi and we were both founded in Indiana, let's chill out eighty some odd years later. Those who know their history, know the history.
Of course there are other deviations
PNG Connection, Golden Love, Canine Love, Pretty Boys, and Pretty Girls, and Crimson and Cream, but there is nothing wrong with showing a little respect or love. Now I do think it is wrong when people go around saying they don't need a constitution.
Everybody knows that with the exception of the blue bond, they are not official. Your bond is a beautiful and unique thing, but there is significance in the others.
