I don’t like the singling out of “white men” as the villains...but overall I think this move is a good thing.
Before we all suddenly start sounding like Pajama boy, ponder these cogent thoughts by Milo on the subject:
University administrators across the nation have been cracking down on Greek life. Why? Because they see them as an existential threat to their feminist agenda. They want a culture of numales, neutered bearded people who want to hug muslims not defend their country. A place where men can be manly and women can be womanly. It is your gender studies’ department’s worst nightmare. And it drives them insane.
In a way, it makes sense that the same administrators who hate Western civilization – and are ripping out of your curriculum the highest achievements of that civilization’s artists and thinkers — would try to stamp out the kind of male camaraderie on which that civilization was built, going as far back as my ancient Greek ancestors.
Look, don’t be idiots. Don’t haze your freshmen into the hospital. And do try not to break the law. But don’t let these miserable self-righteous p****** ruin your college experience either. In modern society, there are fewer and fewer opportunities for men to be men. For masculinity to flourish in all its glory. For daring and risk-taking to live free, or at least relatively free. Fraternities are one of those places. They deserve to be protected.
