If someone is wearing the letters of a sorority/fraternity they are representing that organization and if they are not a part of it they may do or say something to make that organization look bad.

I completely agree!! You know, if I saw a woman in a Theta Nu line shirt, she BETTER be a soror or it's on. If I saw a man in one, we'd be having words!! I don't know how I feel about my letters being on t-shirts, at all. Oh, and if I saw a man wearing a Theta Nu crossing jacket, and if his girl weren't standing right next to him to explain herself, there would be a HUGE problem!!
The ONLY reason you should ever wear letters is if you know what they mean. If someone is wearing letters who is not part of the organization, I'm going to assume that person knows what the letters mean and then I'll wonder what kind of member would give out such sacred information. But, I don't think I'd mind horribly if I saw a man wearing a shirt that said, "My Lady is a Theta Nu" or something to that effect. Of course, I'd ask who the "Lady" was and what chapter she was from...then we'd get back into what I was talking about before and I don't want to have to throw dem bows!!!
