Fraternities also promote sex and gender
inequality. The students who are members of the majority of the fraternities
are all ‘straight’. We hardly see homosexual students as members of
fraternities except those that are specially made out for them. This inequality
exists as fraternities are focused on masculinity and give masculinity a lot of
importance. Homosexuals therefore, are not considered ‘fit’ for the fraternity
life and often face the same consequences of being eliminated in the rush
procedure itself.
Fraternities also often focus on females and how to attract
them. Females are considered as objects of desire and pleasure and are not treated fairly. They are treated as targets and are spoken about as targets among the fraternity brothers.
