Greek Island of Lesbos sues over term 'Lesbian'

Click on a label to read posts from that part of the world.

I think this is DEFINITELY great advertising for them! I played a game on Maxim Radio where I asked people the origin of the word lesbian and used the island of Lesbos as a possible origin.. and NOBODY believed that there was an island of Lesbos... as it would be TOOO awesome!

Now EVERYBODY knows about this island and wants to go there!

So Iva.. I agree with you.. good advertising opportunity!

I've been to Lesbos, and met lots of nice, non-gay Lesbians there. It's a great holiday destination and the Ouzo is to die for.
