This kind of pisses me off. No, not kind of, it just plain pisses me off.
A lot of the women I knew who were little sisters (sorority members and non-members) worked their ASSES off and were very proud of being little sisters. They weren't there because of politics or PR...they were there because they loved the brothers and what the fraternity stood for. They did a heck of a lot more to earn that title than saying OMG BE MY BIG BRO?? I don't even want to get into the wearing letters issue. A lot of the programs back in the day were sanctioned by the fraternities' HQs and so obviously they were OK w/ women wearing letters. This, not so much.
If groups are going to do the type of thing that PANTHERTEKE talked about, I wish they'd find a different name for it, like Sorority BFF of the Month or something. But like VandalSquirrel said...why do you have to have a title for your friends?
