Sorry, but I don't believe that wearing jeans is appropriate for any career holding adult with GOOD TASTE in a social situation. I never said anything about ties or dress pants. Khakis are not dress pants. Jeans here bring up connotation of the blue collar working class or adolescence and those are both something to be avoided in many social circles (eg, Greek alumni).
So what you're saying is, you can't be blue collar and a Greek alumnus? Only blue collar people wear jeans? Greeks avoid socializing with blue collar people? My God, you ARE an idiot. Some of those "blue collar" people are probably making more than you'll EVER make, and far more committed to their community.

See, this is what sticks in a lot of people's craws when the southern posters start in - you seem to think being a shallow snob and judging people by the way they dress is an asset. I don't deny that some of that goes on in Greek chapters and elsewhere in the north, but there's a difference between acknowledging it and wallowing in it. Any stupid schlub can put on what is basically a uniform and fake his way into your circles if he really wants to.
