AZpinkkittie, you have a good point, and one that I never really considered. Like many people, I figure it's not really my business what orientation people have, and if my friends are gay, I just accept it because they're more than that. I hadn't really thought they'd ever get tired of hanging with their groups- I figured if they wanted a break from the woe-is-me syndrome, they could hang out with other friends they have.

That said, joining a sorority is a great experience, but I can imagine it's difficult at most colleges if you're openly gay as a PNM. NYU is as accepting as you can get, but I know some groups would look at any openly gay PNM askance and wonder why she was there. It's not that they'd be descriminatory, it would just be seen as odd. *shrugs* All I know is, if my former traveling advisor had gotten wind of a gay PNM, the shit would hit the fan...and she was a representative of HQ. (Happily, though, she is no longer with AST, thank god.) Rather discouraging, now that I think about it.
