Furthermore, although I am not greek, I'm pretty sure the reason you never see BGLO's at your "parties" is because they are out doing some service to their respective communities. Could that be why you never see them? Honestly, BGLO's, and GLO's still serve a purpose whether it be social, or service oriented, don't turn something so obvious into a race debate.

Realistically, we're not always doing service 24/7. Especially during party hours. Don't get me wrong, we do PLENTY of service, but keeping it real, we party, too!
And WHAT IS SO WRONG with having race debates/discussions????? PM_Mama00 didn't turn it into a race debate! This is clearly a racial issue. We have PREDOMINATELY white orgs and we have PREDOMINATELY Black orgs. THERE IS A REASON FOR IT, IT'S NOT A COINCIDENCE.
Why can't we be adults and discuss this??? Why does it always get out of hand, and no one wants to talk about it anymore? Why will these questions KEEP resurfacing until we can have a civil discussion about them without people getting their panties or boxer/briefs
in a bunch? I am in no way saying let's start spewing out malicious racial stuff, I'm just saying, can we at least talk about it, dang. And I understand that people might get offended by some stuff, but ok, they will get over it. And that includes me. I'm sure something will get said in this thread that will tick me off. That doesn't mean I'm not woman enough to handle it and move on. That's all I'm saying.
So can we talk about this, or what? I'm interested in hearing (the truth) why people think that BGLO's don't need to exist.
If someone offends you, please, cool off FIRST then either post your FEELINGS or email the person privately. I have faith that we can handle this maturely.
I just don't get it. I have white friends that are near and dear to my heart (and I don't mean associates either, I mean I would die for them, and I know they would do the same for me) and we talk about race stuff all the time. We talk about stereotypes, everything. Why can't we do that here?
I know I'm rambling, but it's Friday, and I really don't want to work!
