I just heard her on "Air America" (liberal radio). GRRRR. Not enough to make me switch over to Fox, but still.....
What kills me is that she occasionally qualifies what she says with "not everyone is like that" or "the nationals are cracking down on hazing" and then proceeds to tell horrifying stories of hazing and sexual hi-jinks. She claimed sorority girls are obsessed by boobs, boys, boobs, boobs and boobs.
Anyone out there ever make pledges strip and line up by boob size? Think she made this up to hype sales to horny guys? How else is she going to sell this?
The main thing the Air America folks were complaining about was how appallingly apolitical the girls in the book were. Well hello - that's college kids. I was always stunned when I met another person (greek or not) who enjoyed talking politics. Hell, I was stunned when I found another person who liked talking about books!
And should sororities be involved with politics? I don't think that's appropriate, but they do get involved with women's issues that we can all agree on regardless of our politics - breast cancer, heart disease, domestic violence, child abuse, etc. - absolutely no mention of that.
Sorry for the rant, but I was expecting a little more balance and a little less out-and-out titallation.
