Alcohol and Sororities Advice

[reverie]

I'm planning on going through recruitment this fall. Often, I receive a response similar to: "But you don't drink? How could you be in a sorority?" or "I think you'd make a good XYZ, but they drink a lot!"

I've already told people that drinking is not a requirement of any sorority, but they seem to just shrug it off. I hardly believe that the amount of alcohol I can/will consume is directly related to how dedicated I will be as a sister.

Does anyone have an advice on a proper response to these comments? So far I've just been trying to grin and bear it, but it's so annoying!
