Dam! Nobody paid it any attention? What the ---- was wrong with yall? Good thing I wasn't there. LOL!!!

This reminds me of the pictures of the Zetas in the "we look good in any color" t-shirts. Where is that thread?!!

Can't find it.

Yeah, that is what I thought about too. And that thread where it had those guys wearing Delta and AKA line jackets. People did not seem bothered about that.

Aint that the truth! This picture is floating around enough cause it was all up in my e-mails. Why is it that when one of our members does something for "shock value" we are called "insecure" and what not? I was 36 years old when I became a Sigma woman.

I aint insecure about a dam thing!

I'm still looking for the darn thread....

Can't find it... oh well caint find it.

I was "bothered" by it until I found out it was Greek skit day and the men were doing tributes to the members of those sororities. The jackets were not worn as a diss.

That shirt that is shown in the original post is meant to be a diss. I am no longer bothered by it like I was a year ago because it is another Greek trend.

No one said that you, Blue Reign, is insecure. And age has nothing to do with insecurity.

But possibly the wearer of this shirt is insecure about her affiliation.

The thread is in your forum in the I Can't Believe thread: http://www.greekchat.com/gcforums/sh...t=54788&page=5

Thanks CT4 for the link. No, I'm not talking bout that thread. There was a whole nother thread that was created and dedicated to those specific shirts and I can't find it.

Now as for this current shirt, I kind of like it. I would wear it IF IT WAS DONE DIFFERENTLY!!. Why would anyone want to wear another organizations letters in their colors? Nothing is sacred anymore. A better shirt could have been made in the likes of the apology shirts.

No one called all of you insecure.

We called that young lady, and anyone else who puts that much (money and) effort into other organizations, insecure.

Why would anyone want to wear another organization's letters, period (outside of maybe NPHC event shirts)? Not to mention that some of our organization's have protocol as to how we should and should not sport our 'nalia.

In addition to official protocol for my organization, I was taught some unofficial 'nalia protocol. That unofficial 'nalia protocol included not wearing "diss 'nalia." It's all about DST and if you want to think about another organization enough to put a reference to that organization on your 'nalia...you should've pledged that other organization.

Quite frankly, neither am I. In the realm of dissing other NPHC greeks, this shirt is very mild by comparison. I've seen and heard much worse. The 'much worse' is usually from the fraternities.

Why would you assume that? I'm assuming here that she did it just for the picnic just to get a rise out of people, which as one poster has said, the shirt really did not cause a stir.

And, quite frankly, I know of other NPHC members who became unsure about their affiliation. For those of us who live in glass houses, we should not throw stones.

That's insecure and lame as far as I'm concerned. It didn't cause a stir because people hopefully thought "that's insecure and lame" when they saw the shirt. More money down the drain.

What are you talking about right now? Are people getting sensitive just because this is their soror?

I am not assuming one little thing about her. It's just a possibility.

Well said in your last 2 or 3 posts, Soror DSTChaos.
