Synopsis
Now in paperback comes the "New York Times" bestseller that takes readers behind closed doors to see what "really" goes on in America's sororities., 2015 Edition: With a New Preface, Afterword, and Updates. "Alexandra Robbins rips into the secret, sordid underbelly of sororities."-- Vanity Fair Updated ten years after it is original publication, Pledged by Alexandra Robbins is as timely today as it was when first published. With salacious breaking news about fraternities and sororities shocking the general public (and members themselves) Pledged exposes what really goes on behind the facades of some of these Greek organizations. Robbins, an investigative journalist, went undercover as a sorority sister; her expose is a breathtaking narrative of tumultuous breakups, fights, drunk driving, stalkers, cover-ups, predation by faculty and staff, theft, rape, and an abundance of drugs and alcohol, and much, much more., This New York Times bestseller takes the reader behind closed doors to see what really goes on in America's sororities. In Pledged, bestselling author Alexandra Robbins goes undercover to expose the dark side of collegiate sisterhood - the psychological abuse, hazing rituals and widespread body image disorders - while at the same time introducing us to many of the intelligent and successful women within its ranks. The result is a compelling sociological and cultural exploration of the powerful influences that these organisations wield of American girls today., Alexandra Robbins wanted to find out if the stereotypes about sorority girls were actually true, so she spent a year with a group of girls in a typical sorority. The sordid behavior of sorority girls exceeded her worst expectations -- drugs, psychological abuse, extreme promiscuity, racism, violence, and rampant eating disorders are just a few of the problems. But even more surprising was the fact that these abuses were inflicted and endured by intelligent, successful, and attractive women. Why is the desire to belong to a sorority so powerful that women are willing to engage in this type of behavior -- especially when the women involved are supposed to be considered 'sisters'? What definition of sisterhood do many women embrace? Pledged combines a sharp-eyed narrative with extensive reporting and the fly-on-the-wall voyeurism of reality shows to provide the answer., Alexandra Robbins was puzzled when her eighteen-year-old sister announced that she planned to rush one of her college?'s many sororities. Wanting to find out if the clich? stereotypes about sorority girls were actually true, Robbins went undercover in a sorority house to research subject. And she was stunned by what she learned. Combining a fast-paced narrative with the extensive reporting of investigative journalism and the fly-on-the-wall voyeurism of reality shows, Pledged follows the narratives of the sorority girls. Stories include tumultuous breakups, fights between "best friends," drunk driving, a stalker-boyfriend, a sorority cover-up for a gay frat boy who can't tell his fraternity, a professor hitting on a sister who's in love with him, theft, a pathological liar, a rape by a fraternity boy, sorority activities involving nudity, multiple conversations about breast size, and an abundance of drugs and alcohol, and much, much more. Controversies aside, Pledged is a look at a world that is fascinating to outsiders.
