I just want the SHIMs to have a "proper way to cross legs" rule. **shudder**
Seriously....
ISUKappa - you said "So what if some think it's hypocritical" - I personally think hypocrisy is one of the biggest things that makes people anti-Greek. Smart people - the kind we want in our orgs - can smell it a mile away.
HDIAPM, I don't think making out with your man in front of your parents is quite on the same level as wearing a shirt. You know they would be offended by it. However you have no clue what other people think if they see you drink in letters. They could be saying "hey, a sorority drunk!", they could be thinking "her hair looks really good" they could be thinking "I can't believe she's drinking Budweiser." Believing everyone you encounter has the same outlook on this is just not realistic.
So you're wondering what I DO think is disrespecting my letters? When I see, hear or read about my sisters being unkind, snobbish, rude or closed-minded, THAT is disrespecting my letters and my sorority. We promise as sisters to be our best selves and be kind to others. Violating those tenets is what's truly wrong, not drinking a beer while wearing a shirt with some Greek letters on it.
