transgender female

by: suzan   

I am a transgender female and I would like to go through recruitment. How welcome do you think I would be here at Vandy? I have already lost my roommate which has been a trauma. Not sure what to think so would appreciate some help. Thanks

I am not sure if our panhel has a transgender policy? Does anyone know if we have walked this road before? I know other schools have dealt with this issue, just not sure if we have. Help me out here people.

I know that my chapter is overall not opposed to a transgender sister, but we would have to fight nationals in order to initiate one.

I read about the AOII Tufts thing because I had never heard about it and that i something that will affect the Panhellenic community as a whole no matter what house you are in. Half of the chapter did quit, which caused nationals to allow the transgender woman to became a sister. But it was unclear if any policy change was enacted, but there is a precedent set for AOII at least to accept transgender sisters. Greek life is requiring all national policies to be on the books next year to create more transparency overall, but especially with topics like this. I hope that you are happy with your decision whatever it is and remember that some houses do COB, so you do not necessarily have to go through formal recruitment.

To 'wow':
Your post made me cry. I am a straight woman in a "top house" (not that any of that information should matter) and the insensitivity and close mindedness you are showing and sharing is very upsetting. I hope as you go into the real world and become an adult you learn to be more open and kind to others- even if you don't understand them.

peeps who's mental identity does not match their body need help, not jokes or rudeness. they also don't need for us to pretend the mental identity can be more important than what they are physically.

get help. don't pretend.
