Well said, Classy Gentleman...
I've met RHOmeos before and they treated me like a queen... not an outsider. Though I am still a neo, I know the history behind the fraternity and I respect it. Although you are a separate entity, I will still have blue&gold ties to you... in mind, body, and spirit.
If I see a P-meo, I can't help but show love as if you WERE connected... because at one time, you were. I can understand the offense taken by being labeled "Sigma Sweethearts," so out of respect of your history and mine, I don't think of you as such. However, P-meos can't expect me, a member of Sigma Gamma Rho Sorority, Inc., to just dismiss them from my view. If anything, I respect you more because you HAVEN'T dissolved, but sustained.
In essence, dear RHOmeo, I DO NOT think your name should be changed or that the fraternity should take further measures to widen the gap from SGR. You're separate. It's understood & respected by me. Just don't forget your "former sorors" (just a joke, no hate mail pls!) in your future. To me, we'll always be "connected," bRHOther... it's all history.
Mad love to those FINE & KIND Classy Gentlemen of Sigma Rhomeo!
