Banned Skits

[dzsaigirl]

On my campus, for each event that involves skits or dances there is a specific set of guidelines that must be followed. It includes no profanity, sexual gestures, sexual themes, no overly revealing clothing, etc. Then it gets really specific about other stuff like no more than 15 people on stage at any given time...blah blah blah...Every campus should have some guidelines for that stuff and if they don't, they need to get to it fast! Saves a lot of trouble.

You know what I'm sayin'!
Sororities who lick chocolate and kiss each other is a definate turn-on, not a turn-off.

At Sigma Chi Derby Days, there is a "karaoke/dance contest" where each sorority does a little dance and yells a song with the guys as judges. The most scandalous thing that's ever happened was one sorority whipping off their shirts to reveal teeny tiny sports bras, but we never did anything more than show our navels, thank goodness. The more arse-wiggling, though, the better the score. I did it as a pledge and had fun, but looking back it seems a little...I don't know, degrading, I guess. I mean, it was a bunch of guys judging girls' "dances", for crying out loud...

However, at Greek Sing last year, one fraternity did a strip tease. I'm not kidding. They stripped down to their underwear while gyrating around the stage and I remember being afraid that one guy was going to yank his drawers right off...I'm not saying I'm Miss Prim & Proper, but that's a little more than what I expected!

So yeah, I think a few rules might not be a bad idea.

I am so glad I went to college when I did, the late 80s-early 90s. It just seems like we didn't have as much to worry about, as much PC stuff to deal with -- we were allowed to be college students, irresponsible and have fun and no one cried foul.

I am not condoning the whole shake your butt, whip off your shirts thing at all, but... in the context in which sundevil presented it-- as a fraternity run event-- i can certainly see how it could get out of control-- and like I said I am just glad I was in school when I was. Seems like fun came without reprecussions back then. Well, except maybe slipping grades from all the parties.

I feel ya on that one, amycat .

Yeah, we had a couple Derby Days lip syncs that were a bit much, but no one got their noses too out of joint. If the JKL's wanted to trot around without bras and sing Sex Shooter that was their stupidity, not mine. It sucks that these are supposed to be events to raise money for good causes and that gets shoved by the wayside. If all the sororities would think of it more as a fun goofy event instead of a win at all costs competition, that would eliminate most of the problems, IMO.

I can't believe people would do that! We had greek sing for greek week and it had rules against stuff like that! The sorority is paired with a fraternity and we rent out an auditorium. The groups decide on a theme and you sing and dance, costumes, etc. the whole 9 yards and you get points for attendence as well as for the different places! IT's a great time! I did it my sophmore year and senior year and it was great. Especially my sophmore year because we won! Good luck!
