i understand every org has certain attributes they look for, but to say that one of them is being "ladylike" cuts a lot of potential members out who could be assets to the org.
and arent u supposed to accept people for who they are?
i realize my opinions may be taken a lot differently now that it is official i am an independent, and that the outsiders dont understand until theyre in it, but im going on logic, and questioning the orgs that are supposed to better people and promote all the wonderful things ur about.

You're getting way too hung up on the term "ladylike." Substitute "uncouth" if that works better because that's really what we're talking about.
Being what some would call "quirky" or "original" is wonderful, and many of the women who could be labeled as such join sororities. Being rude, slovenly, mean or completely socially inept is not wonderful. I doubt very much you would want to be friends with such a person. Why on earth do you think a sorority should bid them???
A sorority is supposed to better you, but it isn't a reformatory or finishing school.
