I am really dating myself with this post
I was a little sister at TKE when I was at college "Order of Diana". Was really thrilled when they asked me, because there was no "rush" -- they just invited the girls (sorority and independent) that they liked.
I was also an ASA, but spending 100% of my time with women was a bit much, and I really enjoyed hanging with the guys. Especially as an upper classman, when I was far less interested in attending mobbed fraternity parties, I would go have dinner at TKE on a Saturday afternoon, then go up to someone's room for drinks and a movie (with about 10 other people - the rooms were huge and amazing). Around 10-11, after the movie, the guys would all get ready to go downstairs to troll for freshman and sophomore girls, and I'd go home, or meet up with the ASAs at a bar somewhere.
I never dated any of the guys, and they actually DID treat me like a little sister. The only downside was you couldn't meet anyone at any of their parties - too much abuse. One night, a TKE from Nebraska walked me home to my dorm after a party at the Penn State TKE house one night, and the next day the guys hooted as soon as I came into the house for a philanthropy project.
"Hey Pattie! Did you hop that Husker you left with last night?"
"No - he just kissed me goodnight outside the dorm"
"What???!!! Was he gay?"
"No, he was a gentleman - a concept none of you guys would understand."
"Ah, he was gay!!!! Why did you pick a gay one....."
So that's why I never attempted to meet anyone at a TKE party except that Husker, who looked exactly like Tom Selleck (OMG I am so dating myself).
