If by definition the term sorority means 'a fraternal organization for women', and a trans-gendered male to female does not "feel" womanly all the time, then the org is no longer a sorority.
For me, the best part of being in a sorority is that you are part of a sisterhood with all women. Not a sisterhood where a few transgendered women are female 90% of the time, and male 10%.
What it means to "feel" like a woman can be very subjective, even for people born female. But to be a woman (female) based on the biological definition, will not change. Even with surgery, biologically based on sex chromosomes, the male to female can still be considered male, and vice versa for the female to male.
For me, the transgendered male to female will have to always be a woman, and not turn it off when (he)she feels like it.
