my problems with the show, is the fact that it's a SHOW. someone decided to use these girls to make money. and the girls agreed for whatever reason.
as for the behaviors of sisters and pledges alike, both have wronged. so have in many of my behaviors and the behaviors of my sisters...esp. at formals!. however, i didn't think to put them on nation so that someone else could make money and give me 15 mins. of fame. i would be beyong embarrassed if thing that i had done or said about my sisters or future sisters were on tv.
but, i believe, (and this is my opinion!) that yes, i am able to comment on these girls behaviors just like i would comment on anyone else in a "reality" tv show's behaviors because they have allowed themselves to be put in the spotlight. Blaming things on editing or whatever, doesn't make what the public has seen and "believes" any better.
i am sure there are parts of sigma that are wonderful. i have no doubt that these sisters and some of the pledges have the sincere heart of the sorority in mind. however, (and my opinion again...) i would never joined an organization that allowed the ins and outs of my sisters on national tv, while being obviously sponsored. to me, (and me alone) makes it seem less special.
