I actually don't know why more womens groups don't change from women's fraternity to sorority. But, if poeple call a womens fraternity a sorority, it's not meant to be offensive at all. Just distinguishing.
Just to clarify, there is actually a reason we are called a fraternity and not a sorority. Originally, we were called a "musical sorority" but it was changed to fraternity because fraternity refers to men AND women. While we are not a coed organization, certain categories of honorary membership (Friend of the Arts, National Arts Associate) ARE open to men.
