You may think what you like, I know the facts about my life
and my organization. Before throwing around accusations or assuming, please do research. I can feel however I want about the ad and I can post it here or anywhere else on greekchat.
Second, I have not been disrecpectful, you have. You ASSumed and made a general statement about my organization, an organization that has worked hard to combat hazing and is doing a great job. We take great steps to prevent it, but seeing as how you know NOTHING about Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Incorporated, you wouldn't know that.

My statements about the commercial have no connection to my experience in Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc.
Looking at it from another perspective, seeing the paddling brings back no nasty memories or stories in my mind, therefore I don't have horrible images of it in my mind. The only paddling I know of is from films. No I have no friends who participate in this act and I don't because I don't stoop to that level, and my organization does not abuse women. Those who know anything about NPHC organizations know our stand on this. As for abusing bottles of iced tea, we have never looked into this issue.
Now if everyone here was so for this brotherhood/sisterhood thing, why not simply explain to us who do not uderstand all of this yin-yang about an ad (in a brotherly/sisterly fashion) why they think they need our help. I won't bring this back to my sorority without being convinced, I have not been convinced.
Maybe another sister will be, then you have helped your cause thus further. Instead, I am being further convinced that this is looney.
As I said before, best wishes with your camapign.
I am curious as to the outcome.

Thinking it's funny makes me think that you may have participated in paddling or you just plain think it's ok. We in the Greek community are trying to combat this and get rid of it. A Snapple ad is not a funny way to do that.
If you want to start a thread about favorite snapple drinks, go do it in the chit chat, not here. Be respectful.
