And what do I have to thank (or blame) for this skill? Your sorority recruitment, no matter what time of year, over what period of time, or in what dress code, is in one way just like the sorority recruitment on every college campus: it is mainly based off of the conversations between active chapter members and Potential New Members (PNMs).

Girls spend the weeks preceding recruitment practicing their conversation skills and whether it is having imaginary dialogue with inanimate objects (a wall, a plant, a paper plate) or brainstorming good stories to tell, collegiettes know the importance their conversation plays in the impressions made during sorority recruitment.

You are in college and that means you get to make your own decisions.

From the standpoint of anthropology and sociology, dating is linked with other institutions such as marriage and the family which have also been changing rapidly and which have been subject to many forces, including advances in technology and medicine.While everyone focuses on what to say, sometimes knowing what not to say is just as important.During recruitment, word vomit could be a deciding factor as to whether or not a bid is earned or accepted.The protocols and practices of dating, and the terms used to describe it, vary considerably from country to country and over time.While the term has several meanings, the most frequent usage refers to two or more people exploring whether they are romantically or sexually compatible by participating in dates with the other.So to make your sorority recruitment preparation simpler (and to help perfect your conversation with the wall), Her Campus lists the top 10 things NOT to say during sorority recruitment for both PNM (potential new members, or rush-ees) and active chapter members to follow. My mom is making me go through recruitment There are two big warning flags that fly when a PNM says this to an active member.An active member will wonder why you are even there.These people will have dates on a regular basis, and they may or may not be having sexual relations.This period of courtship is sometimes seen as a precursor to engagement or marriage.Other people planning to join the demo said they feared Roosh's views would prove an explosive mix with the current feverish debate on sexual violence in Germany.Germans have been debating rape and sexual assault since New Year's Eve, when it took days for reports of large numbers of men of Middle Eastern appearance assaulting women in groups to reach national media and the city police force were accused of minimizing the attacks."Roosh V holds some very dangerous views about consent and sexual violence.We have decided to organize a counter-demonstration to show that their ideology and behaviour is not welcome in Berlin," organizers Ami, who works at a rape crisis centre, and Becca told The Local by email. Less women will be raped because they won't voluntarily drug themselves with booze and follow a strange man into a bedroom, and less men will be unfairly jailed for what was anything but a maniacal alley rape." That's a paragraph written by 36-year-old 'anti-feminist' and 'neo-masculinist' writer Daryush Valizadeh, alias Roosh V, on his blog almost exactly a year ago.
