There are single moms all over the world. Why can' they just join or get a Yahoo group to chat and debate and discuss? Why does everything have to be a SORORITY? Because that implies there is a line of sorts and initiation of sorts. Why do they have to have Greek letters? Why do they have to utilize Greek art to have graphics? WHY WHY WHY??

Question for you CT....Why not? If these women think being in a sorority will bring them something "extra" that a support group, club, etc. won't bring them, then what is the harm in them calling themselves a sorority?
I understand the feelings around removing one sorority's letters from a piece of artwork and replacing it with another, but I don't understand why people have a problem with other folks just trying to do what ever it is they do.
Someone said that mothers with children can join the D9 sororities and that is true, but I recall a long conversation on her some time ago where many people expressed reservations about extending membership to a single mother with a young child. In addition, even if it is allowed, it is not the norm or the focus. Kinda like with NPC sororities. AA women can certainly join, but I have heard many people say they would not because they were not designed to address their unique issues.
I see it like this. If I am Mr. McDonalds then you opening the Burger Hut and selling hamburgers in your city is not going to effect me. I feel I hav ea great product and people are going to buy happy meals all day and night. If your Burger Hut concept is good, it may grow to the size of my resturants,. On the other hand, if you don't have a good concept you may continue with just one Burger Hut or your Burger Hut may go bankrupt in less than a year.. Either way, I'm still McDonald's with over 100 billion sold!
