Greek Social Life - Then and Now

[InseparableDI]

Themed Gatherings:
-Now: Cops and Robbers (girls in booty shorts and low-cut tops with push-up Bras). "_____ and Ho" (Golf Pros and Tennis Hos, Pimp and Ho, CEOs and Office Hos). 80s themes (explained to her that we didn't wear mini skirts up to our ass), Trailer Trash
-Then: Luau, Double-vision, Fiesta, Toga, Disco Fever, Flash Dance, Preppy, Caddy Shack, Casino, Old West.

The themes seem right, although i think its a slight exaggeration onthe extent of "lack of clothing"

Formals:
-Now: Buy a new dress and jewelry. Have hair and makeup done. Manicure and Pedicure. Rent limo or ride in luxury bus. Afterparty in a hotel suite with a jacuzzi.
-Then: Swap your last formal dress with a sister and borrow jewelry off someone else. Do your own hair and makeup. Paint your nails and maybe your toe nails too. Date meets you at the house and you board one of the busses. Afterparty in someone's off-campus apartment

Our formal is either on a boat cruise, where we take a bus to the boat and then come back and hang out in someones apartment, or its off campus in a hotel and we stay the night. People buy or borrow dresses, and most do their own hair and makeup.


Alcohol and Drugs
-Now: Beer and Hard Liquor, Crystal Meth, Crack, Heroin, Ritalin
-Then: Beer, Grain Alcohol, a little pot, Coffee

I've never seen people in greek life doing more than pot. There are rumors about certain fraternities about some coke, but crystal meth, crack, heroin? not so much

Sex
-Now: You carry condoms on you at all times and you hook up very casually with anyone, of any sex, and everyone knows. Walk of shame is shamless. Worry is HIV and STDs
-Then (note: AIDS had just been identified): Girls who were pinned and lavaliered spent the night with their BFs, everyone knows. Girl hooks up with someone after a date party and only roommate knows. Walk of Shame was shameful. Worry was pregnancy and STDs

Yeah, ive never seen someone walking around with condoms. Its still embarrassing to do a walk of shame, especially at my smaller campus where everyone finds out.

Also,

-Now Cyber Stalking
-Then Catty Bitch down the hall calls you names

Never heard of people experiencing this


-Now Crazy Students shoot up classrooms
-Then Crazy Girls shoot you with mace

this isnt that prevalent, is it?
