She preceded to tell me that I wasn't like that and that Aka would have been better for me. Because I was pretty, smart, and friendly.. and that i should have followed the path my sister and she had went down. I told her that i chose the best sorority for me the last created the best designed, the sorority that has best gpa nationwide... and that quality is better than quantity... I asked her did she know the sgrhos on her campus personally she said no.. I told to keep my sorhors out her mouth.

I'm glad you told her Soror!
I'm pretty, smart, AND confrontational. I wonder what that makes me.
Honestly, I am told by mostly stupid men (who mainly perpetuate this nonsense stereotyping) that I fit the stereotype of AKA.
The only comments I hear from women -- and other greek women in my local NPHC chapter at that -- is that we are so small we all know each other. My pet peeve is other greek women in my area (DC/Baltimore) who are surprised that we have so many graduate chapters in this area. I even had one neo Zeta ask me if I was able to "find a chapter"? Whatever?
My response: For the record, there are 6 graduate chapters in the DC area alone, not including the Baltimore area chapters. This is a greater metropolitan area with a large black population, what did you expect?
