Children and young people are not just a reflection of their parents but of society in general. I don't like your politics and therefore you are the worst person alive and not worthy of another day's worth of life is such a common sentiment on TV, radio, social media, how could an 18 year old not think along those same lines?
I can accept that regardless of how much a girls knows she shouldn't listen to tent talk, that is all but impossible where the rubber meets the road. And how could you possibly join that sorority that EVERYONE is saying is horrible. It would be so EMBARRASSING! And telling that girl that the day after rush virtually all of that talk goes away is a waste of energy. The problem, as I see it, is while there are a lot of those girls, a lot more ARE accepting their bids, so quotas are going up and COB opportunities are going down. So their unintentional snotty attitude will really bite them in the arse, especially at the biggest Greek schools. But hey, live and learn! This may be why colonies are doing well, and seemingly better than they used to. A non-entity doesn't have post after post of garbage about them so the girls are more comfortable taking the plunge.
