June 10th, 2008, Athens: The Court of first instance hearing on the case of three persons from Lesbos island against OLKE, claiming the exlusive usage of the adjective "lesbian" for the islanders of Lesbos, excluding any usage for anyone & anyhing not connected to their islland (on their definition of this), and especially excluding the word usage for homosexual women. They declared to the Athens press they are going to pursue this claim to international courts.
The greek Sapphites note: on second thoughts, the defence had better be based on the same claim; after all the homosexual women of the globe are affiliated to the island of Lesbos and honour it as their cradle.
Our first line of defence-thought was the fact we didn't sefl-identify as lesbians before the whole hetero world called as lesbian, along with great documentation from the best greek and international dictionaries..
We're building a new page dedicated on lesbian words.
