I'm inclined to agree with Jubilance. I'm not about to go picking up after boys. In fact, one of the things that first impressed me about my favorite fraternity on my campus is that they clean up after themselves. It's quite something to walk into a house full of guys and see them vacuuming, dusting, etc. Sweetheart/Little Sis groups used to exist here, and from what I'm told, cleaning wasn't the only sort of "service" they provided.

My feeling is that a sorority is a place for a woman to establish herself as a strong individual, independent of men. Why a group of women would want to attach themselves to men to service them in whatever way is beyond me.
