Dude Turned Down from All University of Alabama Sororities Because He’s a Dude.
Not one part of this story is real. It was all a fabricated social media stunt by this dude who’s pretending to rush for sororities at the University of Alabama. He was rightly rejected by all of them because he’s a dude with mental health issues and an irrational need to be Tic-Tok famous. But mostly because he’s a dude.
Yahoo: A transgender woman was rejected by all University of Alabama sororities during their student recruitment process, according to social media posts from the student.
Grant Sikes, a biological male, wrote on Instagram that he was denied entry to all of the sororities on campus. There are nearly 20 campus chapters.
“Unfortunately, this chapter is closed. This recruitment journey is over for me,” Sikes wrote. “Being dropped from my last house this morning during primary recruitment at the University of Alabama doesn’t come as a surprise considering out of the almost 20 chapters – I was dropped by every single one except 2 before day 1.”
“I’m hopeful of a future where everyone is welcomed for just being themselves – everywhere,” Sikes continued. “If you are going through a hard time today, remember that life is too short to ponder on the things lost. Choose happiness & always look for the positive things throughout life. Move on. See the good. See the bad. Hope for the best. Brave the worst.”
And in a TikTok, Sikes said, “I’m sad because I wanted to be part of a sisterhood and, more than that, a community.”
Sikes had generated millions of views on TikTok during Alabama Rush Week by documenting the recruitment journey.
Ah, and that’s the real crux of this story. Sikes generated millions of views, which was what this was all about in the first place. Congrats to the dude for doing it. Mission accomplished.
The media, of course, laps this up as if this shows the University of Alabama has some work to do to join the 21st century. These girls understood that this was a dude and they didn’t want to live with a dude. They didn’t want to shower with a dude. They didn’t want to sleep in the same room with a dude. It’s a sorority. What is the media not understanding.
I’m sure if this dude went to Berkley or UCLA this dude would’ve been admitted in a heartbeat but not so in Alabama where the sorority sisters are smarter than the academics who pretend not to know the difference between men and women.
