I see no reason for someone to not find atleast 1 place to be and so it boils down to he has this huge regret for going one place and it not working out. I don't have the answers for how a homosexual or a guy who gets in bc he has a 4.0 and yet my friend can't be part of something.
>> He was. He quit. Maybe the homosexual Latino who is first in his family to go to college and join a fraternity came across as a better potential brother than your friend with a 4.0.
Like my friend does checks and balances. It isn't like there are openly things against him like say going to a conservative school and being homosexual and still joining a top tier frat.
>> Maybe he's boring? Not fun? Not friendly? Maybe he's a douche.

Maybe I make it confusing. My friend is guy A who is close with guys B but guy C went to school with guys B and they weren't friends. Guy C and guys B are now frat brothers but not my friend who has close family ties to them.

Therefore this makes my friend in a very heterocentric society feel less of a person.
>> Have fun at your revivals pretending to be a good person when you treat your fellow human beings like shit because they are different than you. Maybe not to their faces - but behind their backs, which in my mind, is hypocritical. Don't hide behind a history of ignorance and intolerance, and especially not your religion. The boys in the "top tier frat" thought enough of the poor gay Latino without pedigree papers to pledge him.

Laughing my freaking ass off. Not being Greek is not a struggle. Oh, you ignorant child. Bless your empty heart.
