AAAAHHHH! The echo of my scream is heard through every corridor and every forsaken alleyway at the sight of a…dare I say it… pant suit.
The words sting at the touch of the keyboard, heaven forbid I were to speak them, my lips may just fall off—lip gloss and all.

Yet, when sitting in safer places like the cafeteria, the girls defend each other against boys calling them b****es and the impotent diet fads.
Girls can stand up to boys and indulge in high calorie, high carb favorites while wearing—yes—a dress and an adorable pair of platform sandals with frilly socks, of course!
The queens exude dignity, pride and confidence which are all encompassed in their feminine identities.
Who runs not only the Kappa Kappa Tau house, but Wallace University?
Girls, as per Queen Bey! After all, they aren’t queens for nothing.
