Would You Accept a Transwoman?
by: curious
So all the drama around Grant from Bama rush got me thinking.
Forget about what your specific sorority says about accepting trans/nonbinary people for a second. This is just your personal opinion.
Would you accept a transwoman and/or a nonbinary person who is biologically male?
I think that if they lived their lives as a woman, I would be okay with it. This means literally every attempt is taken to present and pass as a woman, imo. As for nonbinary, idk. If they were a bio female- yes. If they were bio male- it depends, but personally, I would only feel ok with it if they lived and identified as a woman.
Sororities are for women, and I think that if a person takes every available step to live like one then go for it.
What do yall think??
Frats- if you wanna turn the scenario around for transmen and include your two cents, be my guest.

I mean personally I'm a trans woman myself, and I do not pass whatsoever as I've moved finally out of a super transphobic household and finally getting comfortable as who I am and finally able to present female out in the world. Personally I think greeklife should be more accepting for trans woman/men because they could be in a situation like me for example, however I do understand your stance 🤷‍♀️ I just belive as long as they try even if they pass 0% they should be accepted as who they are because in the end we are all humans with emotions and feelings

I agree with both, it may not be easy for everyone to pass depending on their circumstances, and I would be happy to treat anyone who identifies as a woman just the same as any cis girl rushing. If a woman in my sorority came out as a trans man or non-binary I’d be cool w that too. However, if someone doesn’t identify as a woman when they rush I’m not sure why they would want to be in a women’s group because sororities are for women, and there are plenty of other places to make friends. I know people in sororities at other schools who have pushed for the girls to not be referred to as “sisters” because it’s exclusive, and I think that’s too far. They’re a safe space for women, whether trans or cis in my opinion
