My father joined a fraternity, but my mother didn't go Greek. My mother thought sororities were filled with elitists and rich kids.
I initially had my mother's sentiments as well. Why? Because society paints Greeks in a negative light. I used to think sororities were about conformity, and that you had to come from a wealthy background. Then I went to college, and boy was I wrong! Sure, there were definitely a few gals who fit the stereotypical sorority girl, but most of them were smart, fun, beautiful (inside AND outside), and down-to-earth.
So now here I am, a proud member of Greekdom!
