Lesbos islanders lose 'lesbian' case in Greek court

A Greek court ruled on Tuesday that homosexual women can be called 'lesbians', rejecting an appeal by residents of Lesbos island.

oh thank the stars. i was worried there for a minute. however, i'm now almost wistful at the thought of a charming new official moniker.

I don't know... I always thought that the word gay was universal. I know for a fact that there are people who say 'gay' instead of 'lesbian' sometimes. I'm one of them. Lesbian does sound nicer, but it's really just another label that the world doesn't need. And what are the male and straight females of Lesbos supposed to call themselves?

Lesbanese.

Lesbonians?

It must be paradise there if this is the only dire issue on the burner.

Guess they'll just have to change the name of their island now: "The Island of Labia," featuring the "Shores of Dinah," "Rosie's Harbor" and the annual, counter culture music fest, "Birkenstock."

That should clear up any confusion.
