A flag of underwear: Photo from Kavanaugh's time shows DKE hijinks
Source: Yale Daily News
In an Aug. 30 letter to leaders of the Senate Judiciary Committee, female college classmates of Supreme Court nominee Brett Kavanaugh 87 LAW 90 testified to the judges respect for women, praising his character and his support for female athletics at Yale.
But in his first year of college, Kavanaugh joined an organization notorious for disrespecting women: the campus chapter of the Delta Kappa Epsilon fraternity.
...
In addition to DKE, Kavanaugh also belonged to Truth and Courage, one of Yales secret societies for seniors. Among some students, the all-male club, which was popular with athletes, was known by the nickname Tit and Clit.
Truth and Courage fizzled out of existence in the early 2010s. But since Kavanaughs graduation in 1987, DKEs reputation for mistreating women at Yale has only grown. Yale banned DKE from campus for five years in 2011 after videos circulated of fraternity recruits chanting no means yes, yes means anal in front of the Universitys Womens Center.

How in the Sam Hill did it get re-purposed to mean . . . this ?

(4,425 posts)I knew a couple of them and could have rushed, but I could never figure out why I need to join a frat in order to get barfing drunk and be one of the campus assholes.

(54,256 posts)Yes, we partied hard, but I didn't feel like one of the campus assholes.
Far from it.
Would I do some of the same things almost 60 years later that I did then?
Of course not.
Culturally it was a far different time.
People grow, evolve, and learn.
Don't damn everyone who happened to belong to a fraternity.
Just my 2 cents.

This should be the clincher I'll bet!

(8,756 posts)I admit I don't know much about the Greek system, but the fraternity that was for all the preppy rich assholes was TKE and they were known for date rape and roofies. They were out about their bacchanals and advertised drunken parties openly on campus. People who went to those went got get wasted and screw something.
