Sorostitute
. . . coming over from the Fraternity Recruitment forum.
Sororstitute - hilariously funny or offensive? I realize context matters, so let's just say someone you don't know at all or not well uses it in conversation.
Funny -  = 0
Offensive -  = 1

Does anyone, especially with the context given and this being GreekChat, expect anything other than a run-away win for "offensive"?

Well, there were certainly a few who defended it as non-offensive, and even stated they didn't know of any sorority women who would be offended.
So, I figured I'd find out if I am totally out of touch, what with being old and all. I would HOPE it would be a runaway win for offensive, but I don't want to assume.

But you realize of course that a run-away win for offensive here under the conditions you've described doesn't mean much in terms of what might be going on any particular campus, right?
It just means that you're complete in touch with GreekChat.
Even in real life, it'd be hard to get a sense of it because few undergraduate woman are going to admit to an alumna that they're cool with being called a sorostitute, just as they wouldn't admit that they thinks it's okay to have stupid pictures up on Facebook. Their actual practices might be quite different.

i would say that generally speaking, i would think women love being called "Sororsitutes" about as much as guys like their fraternities called "Frats"... except for maybe PhiGam... he likes the word "fratty".
