GOOD QUESTION SOROR.
Honestly, I would. I cannot knock them for finding love how it came to them. I would want to make the SOROR BRIDE smile and know that she has sorors embracing her regardless of who she married.

Good Question. I never really thought about it before. I'd have to follow our organization's PROTOCOL first, then I 'd deal with the same-sex issue later.

if I made the effort to be there and attend the wedding then I would make the effort to be apart of the serenade, especially if its one of my LS's

I'd be down for my frat bruh and would maintain our friendship, but because I consider marriage a religious institution, I'd not attend "the ceremony" cause I'm not in agreement with it.

I would. How my soror gets off is not my business.

No.
I don't want to be a hypocrite about this. Even if I did attend (which would make me said hypocrite) I wouldn't sing the Alpha hymn, as is traditionally done for the brother and his new bride. I don't believe the majority of bruhs would either. Some might, but I really doubt it.

...some of these threads don't make for a lot of happy talk, do they? but intelligent discussion is good.

He wouldn't be there at all to sing. WOW, this is an interesting topic! I guess if I am close enough to her to receive an invite to the ceremony, I probably would. However, honestly, it would weird me out a little bit. Never had to deal with a situation like that before. But, I would keep my feelings to myself and support my girl. That's what friends/sorors do.

Intelligent discussion is very good. It proves the value of self-moderation.

I need some clarification on your comment.

What I mean is that most of us who frequent NPHC rooms on GC can disagree on issues, but I don't see many personal attacks. I'm only speaking for me.

On other boards I belong to, including a fashion/style board (yeah, I'm shallow), an innocent disagreement can blow up into a personal attack and a flame war.

Hope this clarifies.

Clarification understood, and I agree. I can be a lil slo sometimes.
