Take a walk in our shoes, boys.

If Fraternity Men Acted Like Sorority Women

Have you ever stopped and thought about how different sororities and fraternities are besides the whole gender aspect? We are all apart of the Greek organization, bettering our communities and ourselves and being part of something bigger than anything we have ever known, but what happens when we are not saving the world is completely different.

So let's say in a parallel universe fraternity men acted like sorority women -- these are some of the trends the boys would pick up on.

Spirit jerseys.

The guys have apparel, but nothing this eccentric. Imagine seeing the guys walking around campus with their fraternity names bolded across their backs. Not even just spirit jerseys, but what if the guys had half the apparel sorority women have. I think we get a new shirt for every single event, philanthropy, or day of the week there is.

Recruitment.


Imagine if the fraternities did recruitment the way we did, wait; imagine if they even understood how recruitment worked. The cheers, the clapping, the door chants -- then having timed conversations with a stranger, sober, about what their major is, favorite color, blah, blah, blah while trying to figure out if this is who they want in their organization. What do guys even talk about?

Throwing what you know.

Could that even work with half of the letters they have in their names? Come on, guys, throw what ya' know! Backs turned to the camera and what might look like a gang sign above the head for a picture perfect Insta.

Wine.

Instead of the massive amounts of beer, it is wine. From pink moscato to a dry chardonnay that is all there is to drink while gossiping over what happened the previous weekend. Don't forget fuzzy slippers and one-sy pajamas for a comfy night in.

Crafting.

Something the sorority women are well known for -- from paddles to whatever they can find at the local Hob Lob, but when a guy crafts does he put in as much effort as a girl crafting for her future little does? Probably not. I will admit some guys do have some amazing creative crafting skills, but the majority of them do not want to take the effort into crafting. But I can't blame them -- my crafting skills are really awful.

In honor of Mother’s Day, I have been thinking of all the things my mom does for my family and me. Although I couldn’t write nearly all of them, here are a few things that moms do for us.

They find that shirt that’s right in front of you, but just you can’t seem to find.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
