okay, i am probably going to be taking the less popular approach to this topic, but i go forth nonetheless:

i, like many soRHOrs, have had people tell me that i just COULDN'T be an SGRho because Sigma Gamma Rho sorors are either really big or really skinny or really nerdy or sloppy or whatever... or they will talk about how Sigma Gamma Rho is mostly older ladies...there have even been times when individuals have made the comment that i'm the "best looking" SGRho they have met...
i don't buy into the hype of stereotypes because one size definitely does not fit all. Wearing certain letters and colors doesn't make you pretty, smart, or ladylike and wearing others don't mean you are a reject or the size of a polar bear...

HOWEVER, i think we have to acknowledge that stereotypes do come from somewhere...whether or not they hold true is another issue. keep it real, y'all. look at some of these photogalleries--and i mean this for ALL of us orgs.--and you'll see some stereotypes "appear".
