It no longer matters if it's a men's or women's group. There's some criteria which qualifies the word "fraternity" in the official name.

But, like I said, that's just what I've heard...
I'm not sure when your org was founded, but sororities like Phi Mu and ADPi were founded before the word "sorority" was founded, so we are fraternities. No one ever changed it, and I like it because it shows our distinct age. I believe Gamma Phi Beta was the first to use the word sorority... apologies if I'm wrong!
