University of Wyoming sorority hits back at members who sued over trans sister
New York Post ^ | 06/25/2023 | Matthew Sedacca

A University of Wyoming sorority has hit back at members who complained about a trans woman being accepted into their local chapter — insisting the term “woman” is “unquestionably open to many interpretations.”

Seven sorority sisters from the Kappa Kappa Gamma sued the sorority in March, saying that the chapter violated its own rules by admitting Artemis Langford last year.

Six of the women then refiled the lawsuit in May after a judge twice barred them from suing anonymously.

The lawsuit claimed Langford’s presence in the Kappa Kappa Gamma house made some sorority members uncomfortable.

It alleged that the trans pledge would sit on a couch for hours while “staring at them without talking.”

On Tuesday, Kappa Kappa Gamma filed a motion to dismiss the suit, claiming that it is a “frivolous” attempt to kick Langford out for “their own political purposes.”

The motion also suggested the complaining members resign from the sorority if its “position of inclusion” is “too offensive” for them.

“Plaintiffs request the Court to insert itself into this controversial political debate and declare that a private organization can only interpret the term ‘woman’ using Plaintiffs’ exclusionary definition of biologically born females,” the motion, obtained by The Post, reads.

“Kappa defines its membership in its position statement adopted in 2015 as individuals who identify as women,” it continues.

“Plaintiffs cannot identify any bylaw, standing rule, or policy that prohibits Kappa from taking this position, and the term is unquestionably open to multiple interpretations.”

The sorority’s membership policy also mirrors those of the 25 other sororities in the National Panhellenic Conference, the umbrella organization for sororities in the US and Canada, according to the filing.(snip)

In March, Kari Kittrell Poole, the sorority’s executive director, said the members’ complaint contains “numerous false allegations,” but did not specify them.

The girl on the right, in the back, could have been a possibility as well.

A 3am “study session” with the fat queer should resolve these issues.

Thanks. There are some of them in that picture who are clearly difficult to distinguish from a guy pretending to be a girl, and the guy in the orange shirt is not as ugly or as big as some women I have seen.

“Kappa defines its membership in its position statement adopted in 2015 as individuals who identify as women,”

Did the organization act within their by-laws when they adopted that position statement and if so, are position statements codified into the by-laws?

How do we even Define what a woman is anymore?

In a world in which we cannot Define what a man is or what a woman is, how can we even deal with this subject at all?

Look folks, it’s really simple. Most teenage boys fantasize about living in a house full of attractive young women. Perverts act out that fantasy.

Maybe things have changed, but back in my college days, members of a sorority would vote on whether to admit new pledges. Was this sorority forced to accept this trans pledge against their will? Or did a majority back his/her admission? Knowing this would help to clarify this case for me.

Most likely not.

The people in the picture look like the people waving LBGQT and BLM flags at the schools in my county.

Zero discernment, just a “go with the flow” crowd.

You mean the guy in the prison jumpsuit? How appropriate!

Isn't it ironic that the poster on the wall discusses mental health when they have the fruitiest mental health nutcase right there with them!

"On Tuesday, Kappa Kappa Gamma filed a motion to dismiss the suit, claiming that it is a 'frivolous' attempt to kick Langford out for 'their own political purposes.'"
The young ladies should file a countersuit claiming the sorority is allowing Langford in for "its own frivolous and political purposes." Sauce for the goose and all that.

The fraternity ‘sisters’ at Gay Beta Delta wouldn’t touch him, let alone normal fraternities.

He’s fat, homely & doesn’t look clean enough.
