Sorostitutes is already part of the common vernacular on college campuses.
Sorority girls can be bitchy. Frat guys can be douchebags. So can everyone else. They can also be great people, just like everyone else. People seem to dislike Greeks because they're somewhat exclusionary. Well, lots of things in life are exclusionary. Colleges themselves are exclusionary (depending on their selectivity). Jobs are exclusionary.
I'm also not sure I buy the idea that people join Greek organizations to "buy their friends." Most Greeks I know are extremely sociable people who have tons of friends from outside the Greek system already. They join a Greek organization to forge a stronger bond with a select group of people and to pool resources for various ends (social, philanthropy, etc.). I've found that lifelong friendships are more easily formed with people with whom you have a common purpose, rather than that girl you met in history class. Strong alumni networks are also helpful for networking in the post-college world.
Finally, joining a fraternity is your golden ticket to getting laid regularly, even if you're Lyle Lovett's twin.
