Don't get me wrong, but if recruitment is a type of "mutual selection" then that means that whichever group you pick has also picked you. That means that you have found a connection with them and most likely have many things in common. Just like you have friends for a certain reason, and it is easy to stereotype groups of friends, it is easy to stereotype entire chapters. If these are the girls I am around all the time and get along with so well, we are bound to have things in common. My sisters always borrow my clothes, and some may see us as dressing the same type of way. It just happens to be that we have a lot in common and being together so much makes us grow even closer in our interests.

I wouldn't join an organization that is nothing like me, so there has to be some common thread between all my sisters. It's what makes our sisterhood so strong. Even if it's diversity, that could be your stereotype.

I am not condoning stereotypes what-so-ever, I'm just saying that I can see how it's possible to generalize when you end up in a place you belong where most of your friends have a lot in common with you.
