Positioning Yourself

By being an active member in my subculture of choice, I'll face many different obstacles, conveniences, and difficulties. For example, as a nineteen year old female, writing about my sorority will seem simple. I just went through my pledgeship period, therefore I can talk about the transition from being a pledge to an active is like. By being a younger girl (some of the youngest in the sorority) it may affect what I see because the other girls are older and more experienced. As far as subjective positions go, I may become very biased since I'm a member and fight against the stereotypes that me and other girls and also fraternity boys have been given. I wanted to write about being in a sorority because it's convenient since I'm in one, I know a lot of knowledge about it, and I want to learn more about what people assume and what they feel Greek life is all about.
