LMAO . . . TKEmz894, tell us what you really think, don't hold back man

But seriously, the poor guy answered the question honestly, he is not answering for TKE or even his chapter per se, but for the people he knows that are currently in his chapter.
And that is the issue, its the composition of your chapter that determines its point of view on any matter. I have seen some stupid reasons for casting blackballs before by people who's sanity I question. Some of them I want ask "Isn't that like calling the kettle black?" Which also shows that selection is a highly individual process and that people coming out should be warned before hand.
Most of you know my personal point of view on stereotypes by now, if you have forgotten, see my posts on how negative stereotypes would take away from my self-centered-me-time. Just the thought of having to take my time and hate a whole percentage of the population based on a stereotype is enough to make me tired.
And anyone that thinks they are going to get me to pause in my narcisistic contemplation of my own existence to hate people I don't even know, especially when so many people give myriads of reasons to despise them personally (they are usually interupting my self-contemplation for something stupid, like hating gays), they have another thing coming!
However, we might not have set the problem up correctly. First when does a chapter find out the person is Gay? If its after long exposure and a positive relationship . . . people are going to be more accepting. Although some people may blush about thinking about those communal showers. IF you found at the person was gay BEFORE they got a bid .. . that might be very different.
We also haven't portrayed behavioral sterotypes. Gay is just a word, but when we think of it we often think of certain stereotypes. In guys you have the lispy voice, and effeminate attitude and walk. That might turn more guys off than the sexual orientation . . . I am not sure that lesbians are protrayed all that differently in sterotyped behaviors.
Well I am rambling because its late and I took some sleeping medicine 50mg valium and 7 Jack and Diets. Good night folks

My point is its not happening at my school!!!! My chapter has had acouple of black, hispanic and oriental fraters come through our ranks.....Which is unheard of at most southern schools....And dont try to say otherwise Tiger/juniorgirl, cause my brother goes to LSU, and that is unheard of there to weather you want to admit it or not......Its very racist every where, but our chapter doesnt believe in judging someone on that....But Homos(So elequent dont you think)
are not excepted in my group of friends, whether yall like it or not.....I dont care what anyone in the nation thinks about that, its my opinion....So f*cking sue me and the individual members....all anyone would get was no money(we go to Nicholls), and a kick in the teeth for starting the sh^t in the first place..........You know this really pisses me off, cause I state my opinion and all the sudden people are writing telling me I could be sued, that I am disgracing the state, and that I am some kind of jerk who is stuck in the olden days.....Well I am sorry, I dont like the Medias portrayal of gay people being right I hate MTV, and I hated Pedro from the real world San Francisco...I liked Puck cause he said what he wanted and told everyone to F*ck off....Which is what I am telling Junior girl to do right now! Didnt I already talk to you about who shoved the golden egg up your ass and asked you to represnt our state? OHHH cause your from LSU you are all the sudden the voice of the greeks for the state? I mean if it was about representing the state, then say your thing about yall leting in Homos(So elequent) and go on about your way...But when you say you are representing our state and condemming me, for not liking homos, thats stupid, I mean say your peace and go, cause I really dont care. But as far as the catholic thing go ask your priest about Homosexuality in the church.....You know, I wasnt even representing the greeks for our state, I wasnt even representing My fraternities views, I was representing me and my friends (the majority in my chapters views... We have certain criteria we look for, Homosexuality is not thought highly upon, whether you like it or not.....If that is discrimination where do we draw the lines about discrimination and being selective? But honestly who really cares if you would let them in your sorority? Thats one in fifty, plus if you where so proud of that wouldnt you post what sorority you are in? Wont that hurt your rush? I think so even at the bastion of sanity and free thinking that LSU is.......I mean yall have to be the CU Berkley of the south...............
