I would add to all of these wonderful and insightful comments that if you don't value women--women as friends, leaders, colleagues, then sorority life will be frustrating. If you only hang out with men, find friendships with women silly, difficult or a waste of time, prefer to be the only girl in a group of guys, then seriously think about spending your college years deeply immersed in a women's organization.

I am going to disagree on this. I know several women, myself included, who always had a ton of male friends. For the most part, my only female friends were from the sorority. I remember my sorority sisters looking at me strange because I would study with a bunch of guys. Sure, I had friends from my classes but most were guys. And, yes, to this day, I do find some of the women friendships from the sorority silly. But, there are others that I love.
In a way, I am agreeing with you but in a different way; I joined a sorority because I wanted a diverse group of friends, to reach out to women friends.
