Like honeychile said, if the jeans don't fit, don't wear them! hehehe
In all seriousness, this definitely happens. No one
expects a young woman to join a house she doesn't want to be in. Most people just want them to know that there are other options out there besides XYZ that could make her just as happy, if not more than the house she thought she wanted.
Sometimes people drop out of rush because the top tier sorority did not invite them back to the next set of parties, or because they buy into all the stereotypes they hear from other people before rush even starts.. and before they even have a chance to get to know the other chapters they already want only certain houses.
I realize it's not an ideal world, and people are not always going to be open-minded... but like Peaches-N-Cream's analogy, not everyone is going to get accepted to Harvard or Yale, but for some people, UT or some other school will be just as good and may even make them more comfortable and happy in the long run.
