I don't know what's in our original bylaws ( I wish I did!!), but I don't believe that Kappa has a statement saying that we will not discriminate by sexuality (Kappas - correct me if I'm wrong!). However, it doesn't say that I can discriminate against people based on sexuality either. This is different from gender/grades/financial obligations in the fact that for those it's explicitly said that we will "discriminate" on those factors.
I know it's a factor of comfort, but I really do feel that most people would be comfortable with anyone from the GBLT community once you got to know them. They really just like anyone else. I think that's why this all bother me, because someone's grades/attitude/presentation (aka the normal "cutting" basis) does say something about the person as a person; but sexuality alone says nothing of the person or there value to the organization.
(I have quite a few gay/bisexual friends if you can't tell)
