No comments today? I've had a jolly good time reading the responses to this article since the 11th. And for the record, I know a premed lesbian SWAG major who eats Little John's for breakfast and has lunch with her sorority sisters at Take It Away every afternoon at 1 o'clock. She's also in the Comm school and is a mother of two. Her fiancee is a Philosophy major who prances around in a tutu during the afternoons and eats a lump of cold poison for breakfast every morning.

Why? Because drivel like this continues to be spread around in a society where people think babies pop out of the womb either sprouting pink glitter or blue tonka trucks.Not only do I not own anything from Vineyard Vines or Jack Rogers, but I have never had a Soy Latte or gone to Take it Away either. Forget the fact that you completely stereotyped both genders, you crammed every UVA student into a pre-packaged, prep box that is woefully untrue and a bad representation of the actual diversity that can be found at this school.Oh and I'm not a SWAG major or a lesbian either. So by all stereotypical definitions I should not exist. “bros and biddies will never be the same.”

Why not direct our time, energy, and devotion to more worthwhile endeavors, right? Even if these notes on UVa society were true, why not work to change them, making a better community for us all? And to everyone commenting in long runs - the same goes to you. What does this article serve? Why not direct our time, energy, and devotion to more worthwhile endeavors, right?
