So, I'm not guessing, or assuming, I'm stating a fact. The purpose of the sorority was indeed not to be able to trade jests and insults the way some men do. (The argument EW took issue with - I had no idea until AGD quoted him)

It was not the purpose, but I personally don't think my founders were deities. I'm sure that, somewhere along the line, they said/did things they shouldn't have done. Actually, I know so, and it's part of why I appreciate Alpha Gam. It's REAL.
