i don't speak from personal experience, but even before i was greek i definitely noticed a trend on my campus that one particular fraternity (who will remain unamed) had a bad history of taking advantage of girls at bars. as in, people would tell me, "oh, watch out for those guys, if they offer you a ride home, don't take it" and the such. i never heard anything about direct rape, but i'm sure there were a lot of half-way consentual acts that were definitely a source of shame for girls nieve enough to let it happen. **disclaimer: i don't want it to sound like i blame the girls for "letting" it happen. but there's a big difference in being forced to do something and allowing yoursef to be taken advantage of when you're in right enough mind to know better but "don't care" because you're "tipsy". it's the line between rape and a horrible descision as far as i'm concerned. that's defintely JUST my opinion though.** anyway, i've DEFINITELY never heard anything about covering it up for the sake of your sorority's reputation. that's just disgusting and if i saw it happen i don't think i'd be active on my campus anymore.
