You might want to look into non-NPC groups, and local sororities. They often have different rules.

No.

This is the equivalent of "you can always AI." And it's offensive to local and non-NPC groups. Unless you are a member of one of those that is ready to offer her a bid, shunting someone off like that is not cool.

It's spelled college, not collage. Collage is a type of art production.

You could also explore sororities that have been founded particularly for the GLBT community.

Gamma Rho Lambda, for example, specifically welcomes transwomen.

Good luck.

It's sad that place of birth can affect whether a trans person can join a Greek organization. That's why I believe Greek orgs really need to modernize their thinking in terms of trans people. Some may not be able to legally do what's necessary to change their sex legally, despite having sexual reassignment surgery or living as their real gender. To bar someone from joining because of that is so short-sighted to me.

Co-sign.

OP, for what it's worth, I know several transgender women in sororities on my campus. I'm not sure about the legality of it, but if you're worried at all about campus culture, the women I know are very accepted by other Greeks and enjoy Greek life!

Sadly, no. I was born in a state that requires me to have gotten the Op. And then after that it is still insanely hard to get them to do it. I mean... I would love to get the op; I want nothing more. But I do not really have a way to get my hands on $50k+.

Yes. I need to get the Op first. And that is so unfair. That is a $50,000 op. Most people can not afford it.

Thank you. I have been shocked at how supporting a lot of people have been. I grew up in a super Christian family, In super Christian towns, in a super Christian state. So I was really under the impression that everyone would hate me. But when I told my friends I was a transgender they just laughed and said to tell them something they dis not know.


I found something on Google that said there was a transgender who wanted to rush and the geek life offices Let her. It said that they did not know weather she would ever be able to pledge... but I think that is a start.


I Hope you can all understand this. I went from using a 42" screen for my computer to using a small phone when my comp quit on me.
