Ok...you do get that sorority + prostitute = sorositiute, right?

Because I do find it offensive a sorority is likened to a brothel.

That's some messed up image and mindset, and I really have to wonder how exactly you think it's not derogatory and offensive?

I can tell you right now if ANYONE ever referred to me or any of my sorors as a "sorostitute", it would not be pretty. Why would you not only take that kind of crap but perpetuate it?

Well, every fraternity and sorority scene that I have been around in the South all commonly use the term Sorostitute in the same way that they use Fratdaddy. Its pretty much understood that no one is meaning anything harmful or negative.

Chill out.

I've never heard anyone use that term IRL at my Southern undergrad. Guess I was just fortunate or something.

Neither have I and I'm talking about NPHC, IFC, and NPC. I would give a HUGE lecture if I did hear such nonsense.

Yeah, I guess the top IFC fraternities and NPC sororities across the board at every major Southern university I have been to are all "lames."

Do you really know what the Mason Dixon line is?

It actually has nothing to do with North and South.

Yeah, it was actually first drawn up when there were still British colonies in the States, creating the borders for, I think, Penn, Deleware, and Maryland. It was used to separate slave states from non-slave states around 1780. After the Missouri Compromise (1820) though, it took on a more symbolic meaning of separating North and South.

Hey, guess you're right about something for once!

Because you call yourself "top" all you want, but if you're going to go around acting (and, apparently, talking) like idiots, then IMO, you're pretty low. And just like you don't care about my opinion, I don't care about yours, so let's just skip that argument.
