What is another word for Paternities?
Pronunciation: [pətˈɜːnɪtiz] (IPA) 
Paternities, otherwise known as fraternities, are social organizations typically found on college campuses. These groups allow members to form close bonds through shared values, interests, and experiences. Other synonyms for paternities include brotherhoods, societies, clubs, and orders. Brotherhoods and societies emphasize the social aspect of the group, while clubs and orders suggest a more formal or structured environment. In recent years, there has been criticism of paternities and their exclusive nature, leading to the rise of alternative social organizations such as co-ed fraternities or gender-inclusive groups. Regardless of the name or structure of these organizations, their purpose remains the same: to provide a sense of community and belonging for their members.
