Got a question

This summer will be my first year at school and I want to join a sororitie. The thing is I've heard you have to be super skinny. Can you get persecuted for not being small?

wow.

First: sororitie = sorority

Second: Can you be "persecuted"? Sure. That's true in any situation. Should you be? Absolutely not. Pay attention to the organizations and the members.

^^ Haha. Yea, if I ever spelled it like that without purposely doing so, I'd expect someone to persecute me!

Yes, you will definitely get persecuted.

Skinny is the only important thing involving sororities.
