I wouldn’t have sex with a goat even for membership in the Illuminati, CFR, Trilateral Commission and Skull and Bones even if it was one goat for all four!

I will not, will not with a goat. I’ll pass on the “all-Fours” joke, too.

A friend of mine went through a ritual similar to that when he was rushing for the Phi Delta Theta chapter at Husker U. Not only were they deprived of sleep for a week, they couldn’t shower or change clothes and were forced to endure a spicy bean mixture (called “Mom’s Rules”) poured down the front of their pants.

At the end of the week, they were led, blindfolded, downstairs outside the common room where they heard a goat bleating. They were told they were going to have sex with the goat and were led, one-by-one, into the common room where each guy was instructed to take off his blindfold.

There was a goat. But there were also strippers. (The goat sex would’ve been funnier.)

Now see, I can’t understand why anyone would let themselves be subjected to crap like this. I can’t see the appeal of fraternities whatsoever. Why does anyone think this kind of abuse is fun or desirable? What’s the payoff? You get to wear a stupid hat and live with a bunch of drunken morons? I’ll never understand it.

Damn. Now that the military has their “If Frat Boys Do It, It’s Not So Bad” policy in place I can just imagine what’s in store for those prisoners in Gitmo.

But the SDMB…that’s another story

I guess this type of incident helps explain the lifelong friendships formed in the fraternity system. If you’re part of a group of guys that rapes a goat - that’s not a bond you’re going to forget.

OK, in all seriousness, I am with you. I think that anyone who subjects his or her person to abuse would do well to re-think things.

I’m not dissing fraternities or soroties, but I just don’t get it either.

I will say that not ALL of them require idiotic initiations, and are more like a “home away from home.” With emotional and study support. Unfortunately, I have never experienced these, it is purely second and third hand info.

[LiveOnAPlane]

Uh, sororoties ( I think) :smack:

[Shagnasty]

More disturbing than what they tell is the lack of goat sized condoms in the house. Did they expect the goat to go unprotected during all of this? Talk about animal cruelty.

Close. It’s ‘sororities’, from the Latin for “sister”.
