Has anyone seen this new show on Mtv? Please tell me that this is not what young girls look forward to when they get to univ? Its bad enough that on the “Real World” they don’t deal with any real life stuff, but on this show these girls just deal with each other wearing others panties or being bitches. These chicks all look and act like total bitches! Apparently they must all be majoring in Basket Weaving because they are rarely seen doing homework. I would love to see how being on this show affects these bitches GPA’s. I’d bet that the avg is a C or D for the semester that they are on Mtv.
What the hell so people see in shows like this? They just throw any crap on tv now don’t they? On top of that, none of the girls are even good looking. They are all avg looking above avg bitches.
Where else can i see pretentious women act like pretentious women? For anyone who never knew that Sorority girls are evil little snots, here is your proof. The best part of this show is the mock factor!! MTV needs to be shot, bring back Sifl and Olly, you chumps!
Yeah, I just love the fact that they had a 400% rise in rushees or something when everyone found out they were going to be on TV. It’s a Jewish sorority, and some girl rushed and breathlessly told her friend in the first episode, that she didn’t know that Jews didn’t believe that Jesus was the Messiah! She couldn’t believe it!
But yet, she’s trying to join a Jewish sorority. Unbelievable.
You know, I don’t personally think much of sororities, the bonds between their membership don’t seem very strong. Still, there is a tradition being upheld by these organizations, and probably a stronger unity in an organization like this one that is based on a religious tradition shared by the membership. The tradition isn’t nearly as old or storied as that of the men’s fraternal organizations (women living in a house like that would have been considered a “house of ill repute” under Missouri law 100 years ago.) Still, it deserves to be preserved. Having a show like this just makes a mockery of it, I can’t believe why any sorority would go along with this. If someone had tried this at my school, a faction of traditionalists would have risen up and put a halt to it.
Okay, okay, confession time. I did and I’m sorry. It sounded like a good idea at the time: a Real World atmosphere + Road Rules type guidelines + sorority (which in most minds equals hot) girls= ad revenues. I forgot about the whining and the unattractive ones. Plus the only sorority that would go with it has like 12 letters. What is it again? Beta Iota Tau Chi something? My suggestion: copious usage of the mute button. I call it the “Amaya manveuer.”
It’s funny you mention “house of ill-repute”, RexDart, because apparant;y in New York there are still laws like that, or at least in the area I live in. There are three sororities on campus, and the two that have houses owned by the school have to have at least one male living in it. I don’t know why, or for that matter why the third house doesn’t (must have something to do with them owning it themselves.) For that matter, I have no idea how the women’s college down the street can have dorm wil all women and the sorority can’t. At first I thought it was just the school being a bastard to the sororities (kinda like yeah, we’ll let you live in our apartments, but we get to put people there too!) but I have been informed this is not the case. Odd.
Also, that show is horrible. I watched it once expecting hot girls being slutty, or something to that effect I was disapointed…just girls bitching at one another…
Well, even though many of the pledges act bitchy, the other side is also shown. The sisters of the sorority don’t seem to like how some of them are acting and representing their sorority (and I agree), and have warned the girls a couple of times.
Yes, the pledges are bitches, and their sisters noticed that.
Those laws are still in effect in PA. IIRC, any more than 3 unrelated women living under a roof made it a bawdy house.
At my school, the sororities got around this because the houses were owned by the school so they were technically “dormitories.” Dormitories are an exception to the law.
More than three unrelated women = bawdy house? And this is still in effect? Is it actually enforced? Tres strange.
The girl who was talking about how she didn’t know Jews didn’t believe in Jesus sort of made me do a double take, too. (I was channel surfing late at night, that’s all! :o ) Hopefully the other girls are a little more savy.
This is all IIRC from about a decade back. The sororities at Penn State were not allowed to have houses. Instead, they were assigned their own floors in high-rise dorms, where all the dorm rules such as no male guests overnight were in effect. Penn State students told me that this was because in Pennsylvania, more than 3 women living together was considered to be a whorehouse. Made my blood boil when I heard about it.
But meanwhile at Clarion University, like Penn a Pa state school, sorority houses abounded. No house parent or token male required. I think that the “whorehouse state law” is an UL, and the various odd no house/token male/houseparent rules are old regulations of the individual colleges (or possibly the towns that the colleges are in) that no one really has taken the initiative to overturn.
