Some of the guys in my frat are not very social. That's not something I can really change but most of the guys interact with the ladies.

*Guys bash sororities all the time (to each other and their other guy friends). Is it possible that your brothers have said bad things (even just kidding) about a sorority and had it get back to them (i.e. fatty nicknames, etc)?
As far as I kno, aside from casual joking, no one has really said anything that disrespectful to a sorority girl.

*Do you guys have poor attendance? Alot of times, sorority chapters get annoyed when they have all (for example) 80 girls show up for a social and like 20 guys come.
I doubt it. We have had one raid and most of the guys showed up.. Attendance is pretty good.

That wasn't what you said in your earlier post about trying to save your failing chapter. I think you know the answer to your question. Just look at some of the things you said there.

This started to give us the reputation of being a "nerd/creeper" house that followed us throughout the year.

Sororities stopped hanging out with us and we had little money to throw raids or big parties. Every event we threw was horrible: parties became saussage fests

The same is said of sorority events. We have had 1 in house raid this quarter and only %30 of the chapter showed up. The sorority has already stated that they pissed off that only a few guys came and they felt stupid bringing their own chapter and will likely not do events with us again: And this was the only sorority willing to do events with us.

Or reputation is still very bad though it has recovered from last year because we recruited a good looking pledge class and our social chair has been good with contacting sororities and trying to maintain some sort of relations. Unfortunately we have so little money that we can't throw many events and when we do throw them less than half of our chapter shows up.

I do not wear my letters around school anymore because of our bad rep. and I find that I get farther with girls if I don't mention I'm in TKE.
