magnoliacurious, I understand and agree with your point, but I think it all comes down to numbers. Last year it was hard enough to get into the house, get lunch, and actually be able to find a place to sit, so by blocking out males (whether they be fraternity boys, family members, or random guys) it actually helps to address the overcrowding problem on bid day.
Honestly, if I had a say, I wouldn't have put this rule into effect, since many of my fraternity friends have sent me disappointed messages, saying how much they were looking forward to coming to my house on bid day and scoping out the new girls while enjoying the sorority's food. I like the huge community atmosphere, of all the actives, pledges, alums, and non affiliated friends coming together to celebrate the end of recruitment.
Basically, I have no say in the matter. I am but a lowly sophomore passing the message along. Like I said before, if you would like to chance it, then more power to you. I don't know every individual house's decision regarding PNM/pledge brothers, but I do know that there are some houses who are not allowing brothers in.
