<p>Right now, I am currently attending a society college and I have always thought about joining the Greek life when I transfer to a 4-year university. The issue is, as indicated on the title of this thread, I am not particularly…fond of women in a way that heterosexuals are. The question of whether I would even be recognized into a fraternity if I am gay has always been on my mind for a while with nobody to retort it for me, considering that anybody I talk to on a regular basis doesn’t appear all that interested in joining a fraternity/sorority. So, just to give more information as to what I should do, I will tell you a short-lived bit about myself and the reasons of why I yearn to join. Whoever can support me, I would be so grateful if you would respond to my post, especially if you are already in a fraternity/sorority or if you’re the head of a certain charter.</p>
<p>So, about me, I don’t crave to sound like that I am stereotyping myself or anything, but I do have a lot of qualities and traits that what society would assume from a gay guy. For instance, I absolutely adore shopping and I love
The "apparent trend" doesn't exist
Prove the "apparent trend" exists? Okay, let's try to "prove" it to you. I just did the obeying google search: site:cnn.com "fraternity members". Let's see what the "apparent trend" is! Starting at the top:
1. Pi Delta Psi members charged in hazing incident
2. Video shows chilling aftermath of university shooting (victims AND actor(s) were fraternity members/pledges, btw)
3. Zeta Beta Tau fraternity members disrespected us, wounded veterans say
4. New clues in death of Clemson fraternity pledge Tucker Hipps (this one's about hazing)
5. Schools knew of trouble before student deaths (hazing)
6. Video shows chilling aftermath of university shooting (same incident as 2.)
7. Sigma Nu frat at Old Dominion suspended for insulting banners
8. SAE brothers at OU facing death threats, assaults, lawyer says (don't get the title wrong, this one is as much about th
On a cold, stormy September night in 2018, my 14 fraternity pledge brothers and I received this ambiguous text from one of our pledge masters:
“Tonight’s education meeting is canceled. At 11pm, you will all load into three of your cars and drive to the destination I send you. Deliver a first aid kit, five jugs of moisture, three shovels, and a triangular-shaped candle. Dress in all black.”
My mind raced with questions. What could this mean?
An hour later, my palms choked the steering wheel of my Ford pickup truck as I drove from our fraternity house at the University of Southern California toward an unnamed talk to in Manhattan Beach. In the car with me were four of my pledge brothers.
“It’s got to be beach-related,” said a brother from the help seat, his voice barely audible over the rain pounding on my windshield.
“Maybe it’s a residence party,” another suggested.
“It’s definitely not a house party,” the one in the passenger seat countered. “We’re getting hazed tonight, boys!”
A knot of anxiety tightened in my stomach. This moment, shrouded in uncertainty, mirrored the complex feelings I’d been wrestling with since joining the fraternity three weeks earlier. As t
