that's an interesting idea...doubt there'd be enough support though.
But where do you get your "behavioural fact" from? can you cite me some studies please?
I know I am not what most consider normal since I did not drink before I was 19 (which is the legal age here) and I've never been "wasted" and I always watch what I drink. I've never been an uncontrolled freak like most other youth out there.
I'm not an extraordinary person, so why is it so hard for others to restrain? Yes I know waiting til 21 must be very diffficult, but get over it. It's fricken alcohol.
And don't you think if greek members were to head a lobby, it would just add to the negative image Greek Life already has?
I was at a bar with friends downtown one night and a couple fraternity guys started talking to us. They were from somewhere in Illinois I think. Anyway, when we told him we were in a sorority here, he asked what the point was of joining a sorority or fraternity here since we could all drink? I told him as president of my chapter that was a pretty narrownminded view and almost offensive statement to which he replied he was also pres of his chapter.
I hope that this American Greek isn't representative of all of you because I certainly think it's pathetic for men and women to join Greek Life ONLY to drink. (as one of many reasons, sure, but for the sole reason - no)
