Post subject:  One quick word of advice: Join a fraternity
I know I haven't posted since January, between pledging, college lacrosse, joining the USMC, being elected to an honor society and still trying to pull down my fair share of pink, I figured I'd say it came full circle last night at our Conference Championship victory party. Several girls came up and said shit like "Oh *shameless* come hang out, do shots, talk to my friend, ect." Except they knew my name... and I had never seen them in my life. Fraternities aren't brosef bullshit, we do a lot of good in the community, but damn if it doesnt inflate your reputatioN!

I agree 100%, I pledged for Kappa Sigma, and it was a great decision. I have people that i'm extremely close with, parties to always go to, and girls all around me.

Don't you have to do a bunch of stupid stuff before you go in though?

Very little of my pledge process is what I would call stupid. It all has a purpose, at least in our organization.

Yeah I'm interested in how does one actually become into a fraternity?

I have a better idea. Rather than pay to have a bunch of friends, you could make some of your own and do all of the positive things that are associated with being a fraternity--partying, having a good time, meeting women...without being a total, well, tool.

All of the people I have known that were in a frat were desperate guys that banded together because alone they were pathetic bitches.

At least join a sports team where you actually have to earn some respect.

Wow, how extremely narrow minded of you.

Considering my philanthropic organization has been around since 1964 and features several hundred alumni who still come back to meetings, despite being the only chapter in existence, I'd say our goal isn't simply to major in chasing pussy and minor in drinking beers.

The bond of brotherhood is much different from "paying for your friends." That's the type of thinking that most college freshmen have. Funny, my dues go towards two things, to buy the alcohol served at open parties to maintain our reputation as good hosts, while the rest is donated to charity.

One of the ups to joining a fraternity with a good reputation is constant exposure, both to an endless supply of Greek girls and also casts a positive light on yourself in the administration's eyes. Its killing two birds with one stone- you're networking and meeting girls, and that's all a backseat to making friends that will last a lifetime.

And PS: I've been playing college lacrosse for 3 year before I pledged, the NCAA tournament starts Wednesday. I'll be there, will you?

Hahaha, I just HAD to laugh at this part. No need to rep your frat here, not many care.

With that being said... Sure, joining a frat makes it easier to meet girls. If you want it to be easy, be my guest. I like a challenge. So I'll stick to making friends the ol' fashion way and we can both go our seperate ways. I don't have anything against frats like some others do. Hell, the brothers at all the frat parties I've been to have been pretty cool, no complaints here. But I would never consider joining one.

depends completely on the fraternity. I was in a fraternity. It helped me become more social which is a good thing. But the majority of the actives in the fraternity were losers not thinking of thier future.. but only thinking of how they were going to get laid that night and what drug they were gana be on.

again just my experience.

It depends on your school and fraternity. Some are a joke. Some are good.

don't be a tool who thinks their fraternity is gods gift to their college though.

Oh i forgot to add one more thing.

Dont think that just because you join a frat you are going to get so much pussy...

I have gone to three different colleges. In my experience only 1 to 3 frats per school actually pull in sorority ass. the other 8ish are just sausage houses

like I said it all depends on your fraternity. some are good.. some are shit

I see where other people are coming from on their oppinions on fraternities. I don't see it at all as buying friends though. When i pledged it was hard, but it made me tougher, more confident, and it brought me and my pledge brothers together. A big plus was that the sorrority girls are always at our house, but the bond that we all share is amazing. My fraternity did not haze, anything and everything we did was for a reason. The reason i pledged was that i wanted the experience and bond that many talk about, but few experience. I have to pay dues twice a year, and it goes towards maintenance of our house, and membership fees. I myself don't consider that buying friends.

My former school has a very strong alumni following as well it counts on donations to keep tuition down and provide scholarships. People want to belong to something, plain and simple. Do not fool yourself into thinking that the reason that your "philanthropic organization" has an alumni following because of all of the good deed that were done.

And, uhh...1964 is not old at all. That is one generation, dood.

You missed my point. The point is that fraternities exist for the same reason special interest groups exist--there is strength in numbers and people are too afraid to stand on their own.


Occasionally there are good service organizations, but from my ample experience these aren't the Greek orgs in my experience. Btw, this goes for sororities too. The women I have met in sororities are about as vapid as they come.

No, why? Will we be having a dance off or something?

please, if one doesnt know about a subject dont hate.

I'm in a fraternity, and it defiantly does depend on who you join.

find the one that chooses to accept you and makes you qualify over the ones that are trying to get numbers.

be careful, some frats are also just there to get your money. find one that has lower dues.

As far as whether or not it helps your game? Once you go greek its actually better to avoid sorority girls, because there is alot of drama in that.

closing statement: if you are to join a Fraternity, do it for the other reasons, not for girls, spend time on pick-up-artist-forum.com instead. :lol:
+ dont belive what you see on t.v. about fraternities either.
+dont join a fraternity for parties, you can easly do that anyways.
