Sorry I missed your posts earlier. To clarify:

I am not attempting to speak for Sigma Nu. I'm just not familiar with any fraternity tradition where being lavaliered creates a connection with the fraternity, as opposed to symbolizing a connection with the members of the fraternity, and I have a fair degree of familiarity with the traditions of fraternities outside my own. But I'll gladly be educated otherwise.

I didn't ridicule anyone. Saying that I find it odd to include letters of an organization of which one is not a member in a screen name, and saying that I find it hard to imagine guys wearing lavaliers does not constitute ridiculing. Although to be honest, where I live, a guy wearing a lavalier stands a decent chance of being ridiculed. But not by me.

I never said my fraternity has no tradition of lavaliering. We did have a tradition of it, but we decided a few years back, as a fraternity, to end that tradition, at least with lavaliers of our letters.

BTW, since you're both in Flint, would I be correct in assuming you're her boyfriend?
