I am SICK of hearing about whether all-male chapters are unfair or not.
I haven't seen so much fighting and namecalling since the last episode of
"Melrose Place." If you haven't figured out by now that you will not
influence ANYONE'S opinion on this subject, please allow me to hand you a
clue: if you think anyone is going to find some deep meaning in one of
your messages, that will totally alter their perceptions of gender roles
and APO, you are overestimating both your capacity for persuasion and
people's willingness to admit they were wrong.
Now, can we PLEASE find a topic that doesn't make people as mad as this
one? We've gone over it twice in the past month, and it's getting old.
We already know how most of the active participants feel on the subject.
I'm tired of all the "he's wrong, she's wrong, you're an idiot" bickering,
and I doubt I am the only one who feels this way. You are all BROTHERS;
is this a concept you've forgotten? These people deserve a bit more
respect, even if you think they're full of it.
