Bad Move? Posted on 11-04-2005
KLane

At my school we (well they :grin: ) just had a greek winter ball. Well a girl I know is dating a Omega (she wants to pledge) and she wore a purple dress to the ball. She got a lot of attention (not sure if it was b/c her dress was beautiful or disrespectful). So I'm just wondering was that a bad move or is it ok since her bf is a Omega?? Also does it make a difference that the org she wants to join isn't DST?? :-k

I just don't get it. Why shuld the female wear a neutral colored dress if she's not in a soroity or interested in being in one? Maybe she was wearing the purple dress to match her date's suit. It's like a double edged sword. If she were to wear a neutral dress everyone wuld be sayin "Oh did u see so and so? She didn't even wear a dress to match her date's suit." But if she were to wear the purple dress (which she did) folks start bein on that otha ish. "Oh she jus tryin to be an XYZ" or whatever scandalous things they wanna say. I jus mean for real. But that's jus me. If sum1 can fill me in, that wuld be nice. Thanx!
I think you're confused. Everyone seems to be saying: If you are interested in joining XYZ you should not be wearing XYZ's colors to a ball. If you are not interested in XYZ, you can feel free to wear whatever you chose.
Thanx for your input too PGPG. That helped me understand the statements and this thread better.
