It seems silly even trying to get involved in a sorority like DX, or any sorority for that matter. But my mom was a DX and suggested I do the same so that I could enjoy many of the advantages that she was able to enjoy as a sister - good connections that lead to good jobs and better husbands. For those of you who think that sounds shallow - welcome to The South.
DX is the sorority that gives sororities their reputation. It’s highly selective and use the selection process to embarrass girls to be sure they really want to be in. Next, it’s full of girls from wealthy backgrounds - the ridiculous dues keep it that way. Last - and this is going to sound conceited - but DX does not take unattractive girls. I know what that sounds like but I’m realistic. Being 5’8” and thin with firm C-cup tits and long blonde hair, I’ve been getting attention since I was 15.
Through the rush process, I became good friends with a girl named Ashley. Ashley and I could have been sisters. She was a little bit shorter than me but just as thin, blonde, and attractive. I guess if I’m being honest, she had slightly larger breasts, too. Ashley and I have made a pact to help each other get into DX as best we can - providing each other support during the slightly embarrassing rush traditions, like wearing ugly clothes or making impromptu speeches in dining halls.
Tonight seemed different though - there was going to be the final challenge before the final cuts are made and the Fall 2016 semester class is named. Like I said before, there are four spots and six of us, so two of these ladies would not be here a week from now. The six of us lined up in the living room of the Delta Chi mansion located just steps from campus.
“Good evening, ladies,” said Kimberly, our Chapter president. “I’m so excited for this final challenge! Are you ready to hear it?
The six of us excitedly responded that yes, we were ready and were all very excited.
“Alright, let’s get serious for a minute,” Kimberly’s voice changed from its normal overly positive up-speak tone to a deeper tone that meant business. “Remember, this is all voluntary. None of the things you do…or don’t do… will guarantee you getting in or being cut. You can stop or not participate at any time. It’s supposed to be fun and bring you closer, right? Tell me you understand.”
We nodded that we did.
“This final challenge is something we have all done. Every single sister you are seeking to join has been through this - keep that in mind.”
There was a long pause as she looked each of us in the eye.
“Over the years, this challenge has taken on the name of ’The 3 Meter Challenge’.”
There were some confused looks from our group. Kimberly noticed and continued with an explanation.
“From this point forward, everything you are about to hear is one hundred percent confidential. If any of this is repeated outside of this room, you will be punished. I don't mean you simply will not be accepted into Delta Chi. I mean you will be permanently removed from the university and likely not allowed into any others because of what will show up on your record. You know who we are in this sorority so you know this threat is real. Got it?” Kimberly continued, “As you probably know, three meters is roughly ten feet. Your mission, should you choose to accept it, will be to take ten feet of penis in the next two weeks. The rules are simple and absolute. They are as follows.”
Kimberly listed the rules for us and I was horrified. We sat in stunned silence as she spoke.
“Number one: Photo proof is necessary. Your face must be in the picture for verification. Text me the pic and I will save it to a secure hard drive, then delete the original. I suggest keeping a ruler in your purse for accurate measurements. It isn't necessary but in a game where inches add up and can make the difference, proving size is better than estimating. Two: A completed blowjob will earn you half the total size. That means sucking a six-inch penis will earn you three inches. Three: Sex will earn you the total size. You take a ten-incher, you get ten inches added. Four: For you adventurous ladies, anal earns double. Five inches in your ass means ten inches to your total. Five: They have to cum. This is and where it goes is on the honor system. Don’t be shady. Six: Each guy only counts once. You can’t find a big nine inch dick and fuck him eleven times. Seven: The first four to complete the challenge are admitted to Delta Chi. The last two leave their fate to chance. Eight: There will be a leader board posted in the living room for the next two weeks. It will look like some sort of charity contribution but you’ll know the difference. Nine: This is the most important rule. None of this can happen with any current Alabama students. The last thing we need is a rumor that Delta Chi pledges are out to suck and fuck any guy that comes their way. Any questions?”
It was a terrifying thought for a girl with minimal sexual experience. I’d never had sex and had blown two of my high school boyfriends. I gave a boy a drunken hand job during my first week of school but never saw him again. That was about it for me.
Some of the girls - like Ashley - had considerable more experience. Our late night chats had revealed that she was currently sleeping with two guys since the beginning of the year. I could assume they were not her first so it would not be much of a big deal to take a few more on.
“Now, before you object - remember that everyone in this room has completed this challenge. Isn’t that right, ladies?” Kimberly asked the sisters. The rest of the sorority nodded their heads and smiled knowingly. She finished her speech, “alright, those are your marching orders. The challenge begins now - meeting dismissed!”
Ashley and I began our walk back to the dorms. The walk was mostly silent. We kept the conversation to other things like classes and exams to keep others from knowing our secret assignment but also to avoid the topic out of nervousness. We decided to stop by a bar that Ashley knew the bouncer at. It was a Tuesday night so there weren’t many people inside. Once we were seated in a quiet corner, I brought up our assignment.
“Ash, are we going to pretend this is okay? ‘The Three Meter Challenge’? This cannot be real. It’s a joke right?” I kind of word vomited all my worries.
“She seemed pretty serious, Sam,” Ashley said. “I mean, what if we don’t take it seriously and find ourselves as the last two?”
“I don’t know… think of the opposite? What if we blow like ten guys and then find out it’s a joke! That would be humiliating. Maybe it’s some sort of test. Why don’t we play it safe and see what comes of this leader board? Then if we see it’s real, we can catch up.”
Ashley glanced at the bouncer.
“I don’t think I’m going to risk it,” she said. “In fact, I think I might get a head start tonight. I’ll see you tomorrow.”
With that, she downed her drink and crossed the bar. As I finished my drink and paid my tab, I saw her flirting with the bouncer. Unbelievable, I thought. How can this be so easy for her?
The next day, I met Ashley outside the building we had our first class in.
“Well, how was last night?” I asked.
“Total waste of time! We had to be quick so let’s just say my total is now two and a half inches…” Ashley told me. “I felt a lot sluttier than I thought I would. Maybe we should go by your plan and see if this leader board goes up.”
The next two days went on as usual and Ash and I decided to stop by the house to investigate Friday afternoon. When we walked in, to our horror, there it was - a big marker board with all our names on it, along with our “Total Charitable Contributions.”
Nichole - 5
Rachel - 6
Carli - 8
Vanessa - 12
Ashley - 0
Sam - 0
Oh, shit. This was very real and we were already behind.
“Care for a drink?” Ashley asked.
“Fuck and yes.” I replied. “Off campus?”
When we got to the bar, we sat down a devised a plan. We had ten days left and had to come up with a strategy. We had less than ten days left to get our ten feet - less than that if we were being honest with ourselves, since some were bound to finish early. Ashley and I decided that our goal would be to finish in seven days or less. That would mean an average of about fourteen and a half inches per day for me and fourteen per day for Ashley once she reports the bouncer from Tuesday - not much of difference. We Googled average penis size and found that the average American cock was about 5.4 inches. This meant we would be taking at least three per day depending on where they went. Reality was setting in that this was going to be ridiculous.
I felt sick, but strangely excited talking about it like it was just a little game. That’s all it really was, right? Just a little game amongst friends that no one else would ever find out about.
