I equate Honorary membership with a person receiving an HONORARY degree. Should one get upset when they received their degree via "thank you LAWDIE?" As opposed to someone who gave the university so many thousands, millions of dollars or appears daily on a television show?
You can't really use it...it's just there. They pose no threat to me one way or another.
Now, when I see an honorary soror all deck in para, then I'll be
and taken aback. I think these people realize their "purpose", if in fact, they have one. These people cannot make decisions as far as the organization is concerned. I have yet to see our former first lady of the city of New Orleans all decked in para. She has been speaker for various sorority functions.
Therefore, I do not have to worry about them. My concern are those out there complaining, arguing, and all that other foolishness, but has not been active since they came through the front door, back door, window, chimney, etc. I think THAT is more of a serious issue.
