good god, has it come to this? of course I was kidding! It was my sorority persona-girrrrrrrl. Lush certainly knows that! If you can't kid in the cellar, where can you? Not at the IRS, I can tell you.


Nor at the State Board of Pharmacy. They've no idea of a "joke," either. :D

This is a time honored tradition in American culture, where places of higher learning group together young women of similar age, and socio-economic groups.

The main effect of this grouping is to help these young waifs learn that it is wrong to be different, and that mocking and belittling those who are different is the only way to succeed in life.

As a student of the most fraternized college campus in the US (Illinois), your words hit the ball out of the park.

Yes I know Brianna was role playing. :D

The reason I asked about this was because I've only recently watched 2 documentaries on this American phenomenon.
By the time I finished watching these shows I thought about the comparisons to the black and hispanic gangs. It seems that sororitys are a white up market version of a gang.

Ah, I'm glad you knew I was fooling around, lushchocolate! I usually mean no harm at all and am just a silly person.

I think your assessment of sororities being an up market white girl gang is on the money. In my time they were anyway. There was a sorority in an Indiana college that wanted the chapter closed because the girls weren't cute enough---they didn't explicitly say that, but that is what those sorority girls thought of the closing issue. I just wish I could recall the name of the college...anyway, I fear and am suspicious of sororities. If I meet a girl/woman who identifies herself as such I always wonder what their deal is. Couldn't they get friends on their own and had to join a gang to have built-in friends?

Though, in truth, in high-school I was a selective friend-getter myself. I only wanted to hang out with the people who partied!! Looking back on that, I can see how I cut out a lot of cool people because they weren't "just like me"---you know? It's dumb on both ends.

I think you're thinking of this story.

Trilby 04-13-2008 06:07 PM

Steve---webpage can't be found....dammit!!!

at least that's what my puter is telling me----but my computer LIES.

No it doesn't, it's a bad link.

I think it's for breeding. That is all.

Not to be a nervous nelly, but the broken link is for breeding or the sorority is for breeding?


IMHO, cats, dogs and people are best when they are mongrel. IMHO.

Though I did have to restrain myself from naming my kids Skip and Chip.

SteveDallas 04-13-2008 06:37 PM

Sorry about that--try it again!

(The address itself was fine. I put my double quotes in the wrong place.)

Trilby 04-13-2008 06:49 PM

yeah, dude, that's it! thanks!

*free call to Brianna's Bald (but getting better!) House of Pleasure*

What is really gut turning is that some of these girls actually stayed on at the sorority . Are these young women so emmencely insecure about themselves that they think this is normal behaviour?

sickening to say the least.

xoxoxoBruce 04-13-2008 08:31 PM

Only six of them, and they may have had outside pressures like family.
