Can a current member of the Eastern Star wear a Mason t shirt or pin to show support for Free Masons?
In New York State, a male family member is not required to become a OES. The question is whether that OES member can wear a Free Mason t shirt or a pin in support of brother and sisterhood between the Masons and OES or is she not permitted to due to her non kin association with a male in the Faternal Organization?
I am a OES and I wanted to know the answer to this... I believe in origination and I understand that our order began with my Brother Masons. I just wanted to know if it was OK for me as a OES member to wear anything Masonic in support of brothers everywhere. Thank you for your responses!

Male members of an OES members are NOT required to join, as it is a female group. As far as the Square and Compasses. It is not illegal to wear it, and if it's for support, it's appreciated. Wearing an OES pin does the same thing. There IS a ring on ebay, called a MASON'S LADY RING. Square and Compasses with a red rose in it. Check it out it might do the trick.

Any lady who chooses to support the Free Masons is permitted to wear a pin that says she does. This does not require proof that one has blood relations in the organization

Personally, I don't see a problem, nor would most Masons that I can think of. Double check with someone from Grand Lodge though, regulations vary place to place and some GLs still have some very arcane rules in place about who can and cannot display a Square and Compass.
