I discovered that greek life on college campuses across the nation has a entire language used to describe themselves. I learned this language last night while reading a website called totalfratmove.com. Similiar to the FML and MLIA websites, this website allows all my fellow greek system members to post stories and comments about how well they fit the fraternity and sorority mold. It is mildly amusing, I will admit, but only as long as you don't take it too seriously - because as soon as you do, it makes you extremely ashamed at how stuck up, self centered, and materialistic many college greeks can be.
TFM - total frat move
TSM - total sorority move
GDI - god damn independent
sorostitute - sorority prostitute - the girl who sleeps with everyone
fratdaddy - I'm guessing this is something like a pimp daddy? baby daddy?
walk of shame - when you have to walk out of the bedroom the next morning in front of the whole house
slampiece - the girl you are having sex with but who you would never consider as a girlfriend - presumably because she's such a slut
I mean - these are incredibly offensive. Frat guys are proud of being assholes, dicks, but never douches? They are in a brotherhood that promotes manliness and good conduct, but then they also have "slampieces"? They are concerned with success, having a good job, following in their father's footsteps, all good qualities - but they get to the top by putting people beneath them. They expect those beneath them to "clean up after them for the rest of their lives". Wives to them are trophy wives. As for the girls - they "can't stop looking at themselves in the windows of buildings" as they pass by, and when they are complimented by other women about how pretty they are, they say they are sick of hearing it because they already know, and the other women will never be as pretty.
All of this they think is funny, and they are proud of it. Not all greeks are like this, I promise. But no wonder we have so many haters! Attitudes like the ones on this site make me very much not proud to be part of the college greek system.
What ever happened to honor, loyalty, trust, LOVE???
