9 Questions Sorority Girls Are Tired of Hearing
Read Unwritten

There are plenty of questions sorority girls are tired of being asked and here are a few of them.

1. So, you pay for your friends now...?

No, but if I did I should be paying a hell of a lot more. My dues go to the chapter. They fund events and fuel the chapter to support the organization at a national level.

2. You’re in a sorority, you don’t look like a sorority girl?

Thanks? One of the things I love most about being in a sorority that I can be involved in many other different parts of campus and not be titled as a stereotypical "Sorority Girl."

3. Do you love ALL your sisters?

No. Surprising I know!! But just like you’re family, we don’t have to love each other all the time but we have to respect one another.

4. What was the hazing like?

I wouldn’t know. No seriously, Greek life is starting to make stricter guidelines on hazing. My sorority has strict no hazing rules and instead educated and taught us values and traditions through bonding, strengthened our chapter.

4. Do you go out every night of the week?

God no. We have sisters taking the MCAT's and LSAT's. Sisters working full time as well as being full time students. We have sisters on the Dean’s list. And even a sister in the army. Most weekends you can find sisters studying in the library later than any party goer.

5. Why are you so obsessed with your little?

Your little is perfect. She just is. It’s not something required by the sorority. But after taking someone under your wing and caring for them as a big sister they become your world and the obsession takes over. It sounds creepy but it’s not as psycho as we sometimes make it out to be.

6. Why do you have to have a certain GPA?

Standards are put in place to make sure that potential new members and current sisters uphold a minimum GPA. Sororities are not all about partying... WOW!?

7. What’s your “Philanthropy?"

People always ask what my “Philanthropy” is, like it’s some made up unicorn we hide behind to look like good human beings. In reality it is the basis of what sororities are founded on. We have mandatory community service events as well as 10+ hours of community service to complete on our own. Sororities teach sisters how to give back and how to have a little fun doing it as well.

9. Do you only date frat guys

Some do just because we party a lot with frat guys. But usually most of us date guys who are not affiliated with Greek life. Some of us don’t even date guys.

So there you have it. Get used to these questions newly initiated sisters and even current sisters. People never get tired of asking these questions. Hopefully one day we can ride the stereotype that sorority girls are just a bunch of drunken party girls.

On the Upper East Side, Blair Waldorf is an icon. She's what every girl aspires to be. She's beautiful, confident, and can handle any obstacle that life throws at her. Sure, she may just be a television character. But for me, she's a role model and theres a lot that can be learned from Queen B.

The Perks of Being a Girl

“I just want you to know that you’re very special… and the only reason I’m telling you is that I don’t know if anyone else ever has.”

As frustrating and annoying as it can be, being a girl is really awesome. We are beautiful inside and out. Not a lot of people may see that, but girls have a ton of amazing qualities.

We have unique flirting skills.

Us girls have a significant way to flirt with other people. Even when we say the most random or awkward things, we have a way of making everything sound cute and planned. It’s just a gift; we’re good like that.

We Heart It

Over the past decade, television has undergone a very crucial transition: the incorporation of female lead characters. Since it's a known fact that girls actually do run the world (Beyonce said so herself), it's time for the leading ladies of the small screen to get some credit. Without these characters, women would still be sitting in the background of our favorite shows. These women are not only trailblazers for female empowerment, but role models for women worldwide. With that, here are 15 of the smartest, sassiest ladies gracing our screens that remind us that women do, indeed, rule:

If you are like me, you have an interesting personality. Basically, you love to be sassy and snarky, gossip, and act like a total bitch (not really), but deep down, you are actually a very genuinely nice person. The idea of actually hurting someone truly makes you feel bad, and you probably have never actually hurt someone’s feelings because your kindness always shines through, even if you do not want it to. Not sure exactly what I would call this type of personality, but if you identify with it, here are some feelings you can undoubtedly relate to.
