I think it reflects poorly on the rusher rather than the org. One of my friends from high school pledged Roxie Hart (she will actually come up later in the story) and she would NEVER ask this kind of question... it had nothing to do with that org and everything to do with the girl who asked the question. Some people might consider this a "getting to know you" type of question, but I was always taught never to ask the question because of the very problems that you indicated! There will always be girls who don't think through the questions they ask...
Oh, and sidenote on this: I know someone who pledged one of the most competitive chapters at UGA and told everyone who asked during recruitment that her dad was in waste management. So I would bet that the answer doesn't matter, going back to my guess that it's not the org that's asking, but the rusher.
