If there were sororities but no fraternities or fraternities and no sororities I might be able to understand the argument that one gender is being discriminated against but since both genders have groups why can't separate but equal be acceptable in this situation.

Not really sure that using the terminology of Plessy v. Ferguson is the way to go. If the reasoning doesn't separate Social groups from Professional/Honorary groups, then the argument becomes why shouldn't Title IX have covered all the groups with Greek Letters, treating (for example) Delta Delta Delta like Phi Delta Delta, Cwens and Omega Phi Alpha.
