I sense defensiveness on both sides, which is odd in an otherwise benign conversation.... Dr. Phil, you are supposed to be the professional - diagnose the situation!

Totally off topic - Libramunoz - You are from TEAGUE??? Wow! It's not often that you run across someone from Teague!! I've spent a bit of time there, it's a lovely little town. We have family friends there.

I can tell you that you're using "defensiveness" too loosely.

Not orignially from Teague. It's a two horse town--literally--especially since the sidewalks are high enough for the horse and carriage! But I've lived here for about 21 years now. As they say in the South down here, whose your kinfolk?

Save that word for a less "benign" conversation.

If you don't see the point we're making and why we're making it, it's okay for you to stay out of it. It happens to the best of us.

Snaps on being tactful.

Lets not worry about why she chose which sorority she chose. Its kind of getting to be ridiculous. I mean, there are like, six filipino girls in my NPC sorority and I've never once thought that they think they're too good to join the Asian Cultural org on campus. And I've never thought the NPHC girls think they're too good to be NPC. I just figured eveyone chose what they wanted to do, because they wanted to do it.
Silly me, I guess I was wrong.

Lucy Anne, I think you're misreading what was being said and why it was said. If you're not really understanding the what's, who's, and why's, just back out for your sanity's sake, if nothing else.
You're about to step into a river while thinking it's a puddle and end up wondering, "how EVER did I get in this?"

I agree with libramunoz, (although I did research and attend D9 sororities events)

I think instead of my story coming across as I joined a sorority I really liked , it came off as I didnt join a sorority that I didn't like.

Eric Cartman: Oh shit, here we go! It's on! Race War! Race War! Race War! Race wars on everybody! It's going down! Shit is going down!
Stan Marsh: Token, my dad wasn't trying to be offensive, just forget about it.
Token: That's easy for you to say Stan.
Eric Cartman: Yeah, come on, here we go.
Stan Marsh: Yeah, but he didn't say it anger or anything like that.
Token: That doesn't mean I can just be fine.
Eric Cartman: Race war, come on! Race war!
Token: If you really think it's not a big deal, then you really are ignorant. That's all. I'm not fighting anybody.
[Token walks away]
Eric Cartman: Token forfeits. Whites win! Whites win! Race war's over everybody! Whites won again!
