That's a rather bold statement to make, and one that you can't even begin to back up because it's unprovable, especially considering it took a majority of the chapters to go co-ed in the first place. Your inability to see that we are not stuck in the 70's is killing me. The All-Male chapters did not "save" APO, going co-ed did. That is when the membership numbers went up. Selective amnesia, indeed.

Since it has been pointed out that you have never been to a national convention, I humbly suggest you take the time to come to Boston this winter and see what the fraternity is actually about. You need to see for yourself just how minority your opinion of all-male APO is.

I noted that you completely glossed over the analogy to the 14th amendment and selectively ignoring that should still be allowed today because we promised a bunch of rich, old, white men that they wouldn't have to treat minoritiets equally. Explain how "separate-but-equal" is NOT OK, but selectively ignoring not only what the bylaws say (membership is open to all, regardless of gender, etc.) but what the law says (Title IX does not grant an exemption to groups like APO) is acceptable to you.
