As has been discussed
ad nauseum here at GreekChat, this is hardly a universal rule. In some places and in some orgs, "frat" is perfectly acceptable. In other places and other orgs, it is not. I'd always advice someone considering Greek life to avoid the word because they don't want to risk offending anyone, but in some places it really isn't considered offensive at all.
And here's hoping we can let it rest there without anyone coming in to share what they always tell their pledges about it.
