Lesbos sues Lesbos

Two citizens on the Greek island of Lesbos (a.k.a. Levos) are suing a GLBT group to enjoin them from using the word "lesbian." They are claiming that heterosexual citizens of the island have suffered "psychological and moral rape" by being called Lesbians.


The Island of Lesbos

There is something really wrong with the people who have filed this lawsuit. Are you so insecure in your sexuality that you can't stand the word lesbian? Seriously. What term would they rather us use? Dyke? Actually, I'm okay with that. I'm no longer a lesbian. I'm a dyke. Make you feel better? Didn't think so.
