At the end of the day, some of us will still say and type "FRAT" because it doesn't hold a stigma across the board.

So if I say and type the "n-word", because it doesn't hold a stigma across the board or in my community is that still okay?

Why is "frat" supposed to be anywhere near as crude as the country example?

It's hardly comparable, it seems to me. One abbreviates a word; the other changes the word to one of the most vulgar words in the English language.

I don't get it.

That's because you are trying to make sense out of something that is senseless.

In other news: Yes, saying "frat" is disrespectful for those organizations that don't want to be referred to as "frats." If those of us in BGLOs and MCGLOs type "frat" in reference to other BGLOs and MCGLOs, we don't expect to have to read this "cunt" speech. Mmmkay?

That's old. I know that. Sometimes I think you rode the short bus most of the time when you went to your poor inner-city school.

I consider the word frat to be equivalent to the n-word to some degree.
