[B]But what if I decide that I don't feel comfortable around women who are not white? Or women who are not blonde? Or women whose parents make less than $100,000 a year? If those are my personal feelings, should I be allowed to act on them? Should my sorority be allowed to keep those women out just because we feel uncomfortable around women who are not "just like us?"
Yes, you have a right to your vote. If enough of you vote that way, the person is not invited to join. While this may or may not be "right", it is the way the system works. If you don't like it, then you do not belong in an organization with closed membership. Remember, your GLO voted on you just as you have the opportunity to vote on incoming members. Everyone has their own prejudices and should have the right to vote as they see fit.
Remember - I didn't say those prejudices were right - just that you are entitled to them.
