Elle was shown as a super cheerful woman who went to law school because she wanted to follow a man. Her sisters were portrayed as ditzy women as well. That's not necessarily an accurate representation of sorority women (NPC or otherwise).

The real point of this blog should be that there are dozens of sororities and fraternities, millions of members, and that comes with pros and cons. Any (college educated) person in this Internet era who only thinks Legally Blonde simply has not cared enough to research what sororities are really about.

I don't think this blog was written to be a profile in sorority courage. To me, it was just an observation from an uninformed GDI who learned something new by interacting with this women.

And if an uninformed GDI came to GC (or in real life) to say that he/she thought (insert stereotype) until hanging out with members of a specific GLO, I'd say "WOMP WOMP @ you believing stereotypes. That's great that you learned something, if you interact more with GLOs you will learn both good and bad things."

I don't think she was trying to generate a massive paradigm shift WRT sororities and their perceived behavior. I think she was just making an observation. But...
