Are those girls supposed to feel bad because they aren't ugly?


I guess we can post a picture of the sorority with a "They hate us 'cuz they ain't us" on it.

A University of Alabama sorority has been slammed for their recruitment video which critics are saying is racially-homogeneous and lacks diversity.




quote:

But some have accused them of selling themselves on looks alone while one writer has said they are doing more damage to women than presidential candidate Donald Trump.




quote:

The very glossy and professional film includes the group of 72, mostly-white, members partying and attending events inside their sprawling sorority house.


A well made video that includes attractive people, oh the horror.

quote:

There are also moments when bikini-clad sisters are seen swimming in a lake.


Is this writer from the 1900's?

quote:

this video has a clear sales pitch: beauty, sexuality, and a specific look above all.


So like a makeup commercial, America's next top model, Wives of OC, Dallas Cowboys Cheerleader Camp, or any music video ever.

Clearly you've never been to Holly Beach.

They could use this video to recruit football players.


That's what I thought this was about.

agreed. This is a complete non story. That we even know about someone being irritated by it is pathetic.

If it were a football recruitment video, it would be a story though.

Hell, I don't even like the University of Alabama. But that might be one of the best recruiting videos I've ever seen. I don't even think Saban could put together a better recruiting piece.

I'm sure the one black guy in the video (Drake?) was and is perfectly OK with being the only black person involved. Progressives are just the ugly losers who got picked on in high school and can't stand the fact that there is a club that they could never be a part of.

These days, that's about as big of a crime as murder. The world has shifted to full on white guilt and won't be satisfied until we're below black people.

After a thorough analysis, I have determined that this video is in keeping with the values of the university. Otherwise, Big Al would not have appeared, twerking in Bryant Denny.
