Real sororities - Fictional characters
First, I want to say 2 things:
1. i am not greek.
2. i not trying to start a controversy, i'm just asking.
i was reading a book called "Getting to the good part". i don't know if you all have read it, or if Lolita Files (the author) is an AKA.
Anyway, the main character, Reesy, was, in my humble opinion, on the sleazy side. She seemed to sleep with men willy-nilly, with no thought to the recourse of her actions.
During the middle of the book, she started talking about her sorority sisters, and her sorority. Later, she mentioned that she was an AKA.
I don't know about this. How does it make you all feel, when somebody who is less than reputable (at 1 point in the book, she tells her bestfriend that she thinks she's a hoe) is made out to be a member of your organization?
Do you ignore it, because the character is fictional, or does it still burn?
Do you think it's cool that an author would even stick a fictional character into a real sorority (any of them)?
I wasn't comfortable with her portrayal of the main character, and I was really tripping (for lack of a better term) when she made the girl an AKA.
I think it's offensive to any organization. I just want to know if you all find it offensive.
