o.O I might be taking this statement in singularity, but that’s disturbing. My brother would never do anything remotely related to an instance of hazing just for the sake of bonding or for us to call each other ‘brother’.</p>
<p>That’s the main thing I never understood about hazing: I’m supoposed to like you, confide in you, and consider you my brother (or other close relationship description), yet you’re demanding I do things that have the total opposite effect? How does doing these things make me a better person or help foster our relationship? Oh, wait, it doesn’t.</p>
<p>In military training (before we were assigned to a unit or actual duty station) they kept telling us that hazing is bad and to report it if it happens and no one should be doing it anyway. I don’t think I need to tell you what happened the first night at my duty station. Any hazing I was ever placed in did not make me a better person, nor did it foster respect among my superiors overseeing it happen. Take my advice, and at the first sign of it, leave. It most likely means they adhere to the frat as an institution more than to you as a person or human being.</p>
