Sometimes the stereotype is true and sometimes it isn't. I joined the "uptight" sorority at my school. Of course, after I'd had a few weeks as a new member under my belt, I figured out that "uptight" meant "they don't do drugs or sleep around."
I love my uptight girls.
The "fat" sorroity girls here are so incredibly accepting, warm, and encouraging. Craziness. And the "slutty" sorority is full of girls who just light up any room they're in with their friendliness and sweet hearts. If you can imagine.
I guess what I'm trying to say is, there will always be people who have nasty things to say. Keeping an open mind just means you won't feel so stupid when you have to revise your opinions later!
dzandiloo and MSKKG, you girls are great. Couldn't be happier to be sharing a board with you!
