It would be nice if we could just be happy for the PNMs who have found new homes they love instead of picking apart their posts.
I do, personally...and while I'm not up for being groped even at something as harmless as a drag show without liquid courage, I really don't give a damn if someone else participates...but the question of is it appropriate for a Bid Night activity is fair, because it's a curious choice to some people since what would be appropriate obviously varies from campus to campus. (And varies from pledge class to pledge class...I can see my pledge class being totally up for that, but the more recent ones being scared to death, from my own chapter.)

The place we went is a restaurant downtown that has drag/cabaret shows. All around it is an exciting and fun atmosphere. I don't think I saw one girl who wasn't having the time of her life (possibly because my Alpha and I raced everyone for the front and center table). We had dinner and then the cabaret started. The entire night was filled with singing, dancing, and laughing. The food was good and I'm almost positive everyone had a good time.
The "groping" was limited to maybe a handfull of girls up front (and if your not interested in taking part, you generally don't sit up front for any type of show whether it be drag, magic, or comedy) and it wasn't any worse than what happens on a regular basis at bars surrounding the college.

The OP of the thread that started this one and I had a blast from what I could tell and what I saw of the rest, well they were standing in chairs to get a better look.

Love from a baby Phi
Glad you had fun and congrats on finding your home!
