Angry Lesbians from Lesbos Take On Deluded Wannabe Lesbos Calling Themselves Lesbian

Three Lesbians (capital “L”) are suing an organization of lesbians (lower case “l”) for calling themselves Lesbians (capital “L”) in the name of their organization, which is the Homosexual and Lesbian Community of Greece. Dimitris Lambrou, a male Lesbian, traveled from Mytilene, the capital of the island of Lesbos, to Athens to file the suit, pointing out as he did that natives of Lesbos have been called Lesbians for thousands of years but devotees of Sappho, the late 7th-century lesbian (lower case “l”) poet who was born there and whose native town of Eressos does a booming trade in lesbian weddings, have called themselves lesbians for less than a century. Therefore Lesbians have precedence over lesbians, especially since Lesbians can be male as well as female, whereas lesbians are exclusively female, and especially since—here’s the ultimate kicker—Lambrou claims that Sappho was heterosexual. Therefore she was a Lesbian but not a lesbian. I think these lesbians have been licked.
