That is indeed very odd. When a greek man lavaliers his girlfriend with his fraternity letters, he is indicating that she is very important to him, just as his fraternity is very important to him. If a non-greek man lavaliers his girlfriend with her sorority letters, what is he saying? She's as important to him as her sorority is... to him?

However, a non-greek man can still lavalier his girlfriend. My (non-greek) husband lavaliered me with a little heart-shaped pendant, and my chapter celebrated it just the same as if he'd been in a fraternity and given me a fraternity lavalier.
