I'm not really going to defend her shallow rushing criteria, but I also doubt she's making cuts based on toenail polish. More likely, I'm guessing that she made her decisions based on the total package -- personality, appearance, reputation, conversations, their perceived interest in her -- and is simply being more candid about the ones she's chosen to dismiss. I'm sure there are some girls in the face houses with chipped pedicures, too.  |
Clappity clap clap. I agree.
Come on y'all. Have you never met someone before and thought "wow, her outfit kinda sucks" or something to that effect? We all pass judgment on people. And I'm sure most of us even did it during rush. We may have walked into a house and said we would never join it for completely shallow reasons. I think there's even a thread in the recruitment forum dedicated to stupid reasons why we didn't want to join a certain house. I sure am glad I never posted my rush story when I was a freshman because I'll admit right here that I thought some very shallow things when I went through.
I agree that maybe she needs to be more discreet because she's posting her story on GC. People have odd ways of finding out who you are without you giving any information. Still, wishing a bad rush on someone just because she didn't like a certain house based on what you think are shallow reasons....not cool.
ETA: There is such a thread about dumb (and some shallow) reasons why we cut a house.
