The story:
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 the applicant 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 have a hard time believing that a large number of these women were political conservatives.

"A transgender woman...a biological male" -- c'mon, which one is correct?
They can't both be correct.
The sorority women seem to be smarter than a Supreme Court Judge who couldn't define what a woman is.
If he really wants Greek Life, he should try joining a fraternity.
I agree with the writer that most of the women involved in refusing this person membership in a sorority were probably not political conservatives. I expect they were/are just regular people who believe men and women are biologically different and that those natural differences must be respected. Further, because of the circumstances surrounding sorority living conditions, they most likely only want to accept biological women as members. It doesn't and shouldn't matter how a person identifies. What does and should matter is genitalia.
I expect that if University of Alabama sorority girls were asked if a trans-sexual should be allowed to join a sorority, the majority would say yes. It sounds high minded in the abstract, but they don't want to share the sorority house with a penis-bearer.
I'm with Randomizer on this one. I pointed out they're not all conservatives to make the point that what they say is probably very different from how they act when it affects them personally. Of *course* they don't want a guy living in their house.
Perfect example of Conquest’s First Law of Politics: Everyone is conservative about what she knows best.
