"Dropping" your girlfriend (with a twist)

Ok, so I feel like Dionysus asking this, but here we go anyway....

We are now very much a more progressive society than when lavaliering traditions started. So, I'm looking for thoughts on this: Many fraternities have an unwritten rule, that when a girlfriend is dropped/lavaliered she is then allowed to wear his letters (mostly justified by the fact that most people would know that a girl wearing a TKE shirt was not a member). Also, I remember seeing shirts around my campus that had Pike letters with DZ superimposed over them, and boyfriends wearing sorority letters. So, what about girls with girlfriends and boys with boyfriends?? It probably wouldn't happen much, except on very liberal campuses...but what happens if you're XYZ sorority and you "drop" your girfriend who's in ABC sorority??

Thoughts, anyone? Oh, and I'll go ahead and give the "Fratty" answer, so they don't have to bother, "If I saw some fairie wearing my letters, I'd rip them off of him."
