I think it's less about banning speech as much as wishing so much better of them. That you CAN make a piggish statement like this doesn't mean you should, or especially that they apparently didn't know they were doing something embarrassing for themselves. A girl who would be personally hurt by this needs to grow a backbone and never EVER date one of these guys. I'd probably do my best to get the other sororities on campus to show their appreciation for the t-shirts by not participating in any events with them for about a year or so. Or forever. Say it if you want, but understand there are consequences to your behavior.

I agree with this completely. I wouldn't necessarily be offended (all of us as sorority women learn not to listen to the ignorant comments and ridiculous stereotypes), but I would try to make these guys realize that what they did was just plain dumb. The sororities should subtly let them know that by joining together and cutting this fraternity chapter out of their social plans.
