Is it really necessary to bring race into this and accuse me of being a racist simply because I kept my statements on topic?
TKE mentioned that he had members of his fraternity that were of different ethnic backgrounds, something that rarely happens in the South, especially (let's be really honest here) South Louisiana.

Yet you said nothing of it. I did not say that you were a racist. LSU operates a very racist social system, and I maintain that. If you don't like that statement, change it.

Back to the topic:

It's not right to be prejudiced against anyone. While I haven't dealt with homosexuality in my personal chapter, I have come across it in my organization. My sister is my sister, no matter who she loves, so it has never been a problem.

Now, I know few gay Greeks who, either kept their orientation in the closet or kept their Greek affiliation in the closet, because most fraternities are not willing to openly accept or socialize with openly gay men. They think it makes them look less masculine and that their founders would not approve.
