Honestly, I feel the same way. When I was in college, about a week after I got initated into ADPi, a "Latina" GLO on my campus was recruiting on the campus green by the Student Union. As I passed they tried giving me an info brochure and I politely declined and then the girl went on to say about how they are for Latinas and how they accept hispanic women and whatnot. I told them I had already joined a sorority and politely declined again and kept walking. (I was also wearing a letter shirt that day? So maybe they just didn't see I was already greek?)
My sorority accepted me just fine, but thanks for offering.
