At "fun" functions I almost always hear cursing and misogyny from fraternity members while wearing para and clearly representing their organizations, even in the presence of older members. I know that if I had constantly heard NPHC women collectively yelling things like "XYZ, f*** you trick a** b****es," at each other, I wouldn't have considered joining for a second.
Now perhaps you've seen sorority women acting classless, there's no need to try to prove that it happens. But when it happens, it is a scandal and you talk about them, no? When men do it it seems expected. I don't understand how no one sees a disconnect between upholding certain ideals and behaving in front of crowds like you would never behave in front of your mother.

That comes from that whole pseudo macho image some fraternity members like to keep up. I still trying to figure out what is so macho about refering to women as such. XYZ frat will have a women's appreciation breakfast and that night women are all types of b****** and h** in their chants at parties. Not a big fan of those types of chants.
