Don't even start, Geeky. I already know all about all the reasons why that statement is not entirely accurate (since it's my org and all, I know how the brothers helped, etc, just quoting something to help) and I've already been told that every word on GC has already been said before. Thanks though.

Listen here, sweetums: Gamma Phi Beta had no fraternity men influence our founding. You obviously don't know or you wouldn't be running off at the mouth like you did by quoting something you knew was wrong.

The problem is that the inaccurate statement you quoted would cause a reader to believe that Gamma Phi Beta and other organizations which use the word "sorority" were somehow founded thanks to the gracious help of a men's organization. This is not correct. If you know the statement "...is not entirely accurate..." then I'm not sure I understand why you posted it.

Honestly, that quote comes across as insulting to Gamma Phi Betas in particular and that may be why it elicits such a strong reaction.
