i did a search... came up with this photo. si guess male auxiliary groups exists as well

while this photo maybe a joke... i found this one to be VERY interesting.
Clearly these are men, at a probate in Alpha Kappa Alpha colors....

That is not an auxiliary group. That was a frat/sorority switch day at that school.

OmegaPDPrez.....that second picture you posted is not affiliated by any means with Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc. and there are a couple of threads about that photograph.

sorry about that. i dont know of the threads. but this picture was on a site that referenced the sorority of Alpha Kappa Alpha. Actually, both pictures were. I figured the first was a joke, probably a tribute sort of thing, ive seen it at another HBCU. But the second one made me think a little. And i was just wondering. Especially from some comments i heard about auxiallry groups.

Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Inc. does not have an official auxiliary group for males that requires membership intake proccess. Some chapters may have a beautillion where young men are honored for their accomplishments. But it is a revolving young high school men.

Also, you are getting these kinds of pictures is because "Google" or your other search engine is keeping your IP address to notice what sites you actually visit. Whenever you insert your information on the form, based on your past searched site it will post sites you are highly likely to view.

Which begs the question, what are you "searching" to get pictures like these? It's kinna like voyeurism...

no not google. it was face book (not that its any better). And voyerism, thats a little much. I thought it was interesting seeing those ladies in AphiA shirts, so i did the search to see if other groups did something of the like. (allowing, non affiliated auxillary members to wear their letters). I also wanted to learn a little more about the groups to understand why they still exist, despite the banning of them back in the 90's. I started with sweetheart groups, since thats what i heard of first, thanks to GC. I went to a few .org sites and read up about them. I read about them and searched for them just like i did all NPHC and some NPC groups. all i wanted to do was to understand these organizations a little better. I mean, isnt that how you begin to learn about these groups, unless you can research first hand like from a member? I happen to not really know anyone in anytype of auxiallry group. So i did what i thought was a good idea.
the picture was simply just my way of asking, GCers what they thought of, of how some people wrecklessly present themselves by portraying something that legally, they are not a part of.
