Being a part of any organization undoubtedly comes with the pitfalls of being grouped into negative stereotypes, and sororities are certainly no exception. Here are the top few things, that I find at least, are some of the most irritating misconceptions that find their way into numerous conversations...

8. "The whole philanthropy thing isn't real, right?"

Well all those fundraisers and marketing should would be a waste then wouldn't they?

7. "I don't need to buy my friends."

I'm not quite sure where the "buy your friends" stigma originated, considering that every single club on a college campus also has dues to be paid...

6. "Oh, so I'll bet you love to drink."

The plus side of having a large chapter is that there truly is every type of person, some who drink, and others who don't...

5. "Can you tell me some of your secrets?"

Not really how this works, sorry...

4. "What do you do at your meetings?"

You can join one and find out for yourself?

3. "Do you guys haze really badly?"

There are laws against that actually, check it.

2. "Is it just like in the movies?"

Is ANYTHING just like how it is in Hollywood?

1. "Sororities are so basic."

Sororities actually have their origin amongst the first women to attend universities who came together for comradeship in what was at the time at man's world...but I mean...to each his own opinion I suppose?
