Oh and in case anyone is not familiar with
P&G thats a term that some bruhs. Purple & Gold and Pink & Green, refers to the Omega/AKA (P&G connection).

Refer to the Link, "What about Sorors Who...?
The P&G love that you refer to is peculiar to NY for some reason and Epsilon chapter in particular. I know there is a Delta chapter that does alot with the Alphas in Manhattan. I think that it is more of a working relationship (from my experience).

Honestly you all, and all jokes aside, I consider myself very traditional when it comes to Delta and greekdom period and it just makes me angry when I hear all this so and so "connection" and so and so "love". On another thread these were actually laid out:

Pyramid Love
Indiana love
P & G love
Dog love
Last org love (or something like that for I Phi T and S G rho)
red and white love
etc etc

I just don't like all of this mess.
Our bonds need to remain simple and reflective of our history. Making up all this new stuff just complicates things and dillutes our real history. Its bad enough we have to argue and fuss over who our REAL bruhs are and why we have the bond that we do, we don't need all this extra stuff.I mean, in the end, we are all in our own respective organizations and pay dues to their national bodies..not those of the orgs that we claim as bruhs or sorors.

Better get those crackers ready ladies because it's actually referred to as P&G 20/20.

BTW Metamorphosis, I noticed your chapter. My cousin is a member of Brooklyn Alumnae. She's getting married in October.

Oh my goodness -- I know I am going to be slammed for being in here and speaking on this topic. In my 10 years of NPHC love, my Sorors and I have always been cool with Omega men. We respect and love them just as they have respected and loved us. We've never felt a need to "create" any other kind of bond. As we all know a lot of these relationships really depend on your campus, city, etc. Of course I give all props to the Alpha Nation. But can I commune at the Que house? Every time I have been with your bruhs, they have been very open, and amazingly they rarely "come at me" wrong. Of course there is an ass in every frat. I was just in Miami on a business trip and much hospitality was extended to me by your bruhs. In fact, since my undergrad years Omegas, Alphas, Kappas, and Sigmas (I don't know any Iotas) have taken very good care of my sorors and me. And that treatment doesn't need a title, lable, acronym or anything else. Its called respect and love for the NPHC. PLUS Omega Men are very intelligent -- they know perfection when they see it.

Ladies of DST, I am most happy at all of the love shown to us. I know that I get a twinge of jealousy seeing those damn "Crimson and Creme" Balls thrown by the Deltas and Kappas. So be it. Anyway, if you are raised right, Coleman Love always supercedes. I know that at UAB, da Bruhs and AKAs were mad cool because it was like that and the Sorors were off the yard. They came back this year and the Coleman vibe was instant. Bruhs are still cool with the AKAs but the Reds ride up front and get to the grill first, if you know what I mean.

Hey Soror Crimson Rage! I remember that thread in the Zeta forum about bruh/sorors and the whole constitutionally bound thing. I pointed that out to say that people can 'pair' off however they want to as to give closure to that whole topic. People always want to start something *new* but tradition is tradition and we all know that there is only ONE org who are OUR bruhs

Soror Metamorphosis, the only way Coleman Love can die is if we let it die. Both sorors and bruhs must respect each other and come correct. As far as expecting too much from Omegas, Deltas always have had high standards

When I read that statement regarding why Coleman may be dying out, my first thought on that topic was that it sounds just like the justification that some Black men who date white women use who claim sistas are too demanding! I seriously doubt that our Greek Sisters of AKA would allow craziness and disrespect in the name of acceptance.

McCoyRed: if there is a real danger (and not perceived one) to Coleman Love, I believe it would be the number of inactive/suspended chapters at too many of our university. Many Deltas spend their formative years without any Bruhs to kick it with. I think that is more of an issue than Bruhs not "coming correct". Again, it all goes back to how you are raised.
