I think it depends on how the chapter handles it. My chapter always had two groups of girls, the ones who were big on the sailboats and the ones who preferred skulls/bones. Because of this, we always tended to use violets on most items. We used s&b's on party shirts when we were paired with guys a lot, because most didn't exactly want to wear sailboats or violets around campus. We were also pretty open to questions and explained to all pnm's what it meant (Faithful Unto Death). I think the fact that we didn't try to hide anything or make it seem scary made a huge difference.
I must admit I am a s&b's girl.... I have tons of skull related items. I use them to decorate my classroom at Halloween. The kids just think I am "cool" cause by middle school most are over cute halloween decorations are want something kinda scary. At this point though I get new stuff every year from former students who know I collect. After we finished the school play this year the other director even sent me a pirate flag to hang in my classroom (We did Pirates of Penzance) that was left over from the set!
