Lavaliering was affectionately referred to as "the kiss of death" for relationships at UCF. Once a girl was lavaliered, break-up was imminent. This was the rule, rather than the exception. But the girl got her candle lighting out of it, and the guy had to endure some ridiculous razzing from his fraternity brothers (which typically involved running down Greek Park and being thrown into Lake Claire).
I think it is a dumb tradition, and so is pinning, but I don't think that it should end because it is meaningful to many Greeks. And it shouldn't matter what gender you are. Love is love. If you want to argue that a guy shouldn't lavaliere/pin his boyfriend because that boyfriend is not a member of the fraternity, the same argument can be made for why a woman should not be allowed to wear a man's letters.
