Now I may be wrong, but I feel as though Greek Life is fairly... not common but not unusual in Texas. I often hear of Houston Panhell, alum associations and sorority actives in general on GC from Houston area and Texas.
With that in mind, isn't this a horrible idea to discriminate against a group of women who are prevalent in the community or are daughters/wives of members in the community?

Hell hath no fury like a sorority woman scorned.

Wow, won't George B. be shocked to learn that about Laura and his 2 daughters! Can't remember if Barbara B. is in a sorority.

No wonder I don't listen to moron- err, morning radio. Somehow women always wind up being portrayed as sluts or idiots...that is when thy are not busy interviewing porn stars and feature dancers, who better not demonstrate that they have more than 3 functioning brain cells at any point during the interview.

Laura and the daughters are all Thetas, correct?

Didn't know that about Barbara. Interesting!

I "liked" their page so I could comment. They have something advertising "The Help" on that page. I commented and said, "Just so you know--The Help is written by a SORORITy woman!" I will be writing something else.

My post to them:
I live in New York and attended college in both Pennsylvania and New York. It's pretty bad when I've read many posts on FB and heard from a ton of my friends in Texas about how incredibly insensitive your radio station was when calling sorority women sluts. Did you forget you are based in TEXAS? Yes, Texas is a place with a ton of those "slutty" sorority women. I'm a proud (and accomplished) sorority woman. Check out Penn State Dance Marathon page so you can see all the GOOD those "slutty" sorority sisters are doing for children with Cancer. When you raise numbers like that---then we'll talk.
