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.
