Rather than saying "you should do this or this or that" (although I'm sure that the Junior League would REALLY appreciate having some of these posters ask them about membership [this is sarcasm]) let's just agree to say:
"Remember when you were in elementary school, and read all those books about girls going to camp, and you wanted to go, and you never got to? You got over it. Remember when you watched The Facts Of Life in junior high, and you wanted to go to boarding school, and you never got to? You got over it. THIS IS LIKE THAT. No, you won't find a substitute that is exactly the same, but you will get over it."
It's pretty ridiculous of us to say that you can find the same bonds or experiences in any of these other activities that you can in a sorority. If that were true, we would have joined them in the first place. They would have been cheaper, for starters.
