Sorority Girls: Hollywood vs. Reality

Unless it was a documentary, how does the physical attractiveness of a bunch of actors accurately depict sorority girls from a certain era?

Your question is just kind of dumb... why are you here? What made you go through the effort of creating an account?

But in real life, now a days, sorority girls aren't that good looking like they once were at one time, or like Hollywood depicts them to be. I've seen quite a few fat ones, but Hollywood doesn't depict them to look like that. Why is this? Do sororities see their numbers getting smaller? Because they seem to not care anymore what the girls look like, like they once did. I see a lot of fat ones and it's kind of disappointing.

I doubt that there is a NPC or NPHC sorority or a local or multi-cultural or any other group that has taken "being hot" as a mission statement. Sororities don't exist to cater to guys or to the male gaze.

If sorority women aren't to your taste, move on.

Mission Statement or not, there are members of a particular NPHC sorority and fraternity who spend a lot of time nationally and internationally talking about how pretty they are. Even the unattractive ones.

When you look at pictures of our founders (and I think it is safe to say this as a generalization) they were strong, powerful, determined women, but they weren't necessarily lookers, even through the lens of the time. And I'm presuming men weren't thinking of our 15 year old founder as a "hottie."

Not really trying to slam Delta Zeta, but their national office reportedly had a hand in this:

First and foremost, Delta's Founders were highly accomplished and esteemed. But, I also consider them to have been beautiful women.

Not everyone agrees on aesthetics. Thus is the subjectivity of beauty.

I just can't even.

I don't know where the OP goes/went to college, but I've never seen a sorority girl who "looks like she belongs in a trailer park"

Crap. I knew my founders were missing something in the pledge.

If you have tell people that you're hot that kind of defeats the purpose, doesn't it?

Real Greeks are just normal men and women, not trumped up movies hoties folks!

Animal House one of the funniest movies ever but not a true portrayal of corse, well for the most part, LOL! Oh Revenge of the Nerds another good one!

Real GLOs aren't just pretty people except in films!

It's like money and class, if you have to tell people you are, you aren't.

Don't ask me. Ask them.

I think a lot of it depends on the campus. At FSU, it was the Zetas that were fine. But then, when some bruhs and I would travel to other chapters as visiting bruhs, the Zetas at some of those schools were fat. I don't think there is one particular organization where every girl in one sorority at every chapter looks good. With NPHC frats, you won't find too many ugly NUPES, though lol. And if you do, he's got mad Konfidence.
