The term "blackballed" came from an old fraternity membership tradition. John Doe's name came up and all the members had two marbles, one white and one black. A closed box was passed around the room and every member put in a marble, yes was white..and black was, obviously no. Depending on the organization, it could take one, two, or three black marbles to not receive a bid. Hence, the term "blackballed."
These girls a B****, with very little power. Yes, you might not get into their house (but who would want to if they have this much power in a house?), but there are others.
