So are people from Lesbos all called Lesbians?

[-] dustyData@lemmy.world 81 points 1 year ago

It is literally where the word Lesbian comes from. It meant the people of Lesbos way before it were associated with homosexual women.

[-] SonnyVabitch@lemmy.world 46 points 1 year ago

But some people from Lesbos are more lesbian than others.

[-] Dagnet@lemmy.world 69 points 1 year ago

Only people from Lesbos are lesbian, the others are sparkling wine

I feel like this would work better if you replaced wine with homosexuals, but now I'm ruining it more by adding this...

[-] Dagnet@lemmy.world 14 points 1 year ago

Probably yeah, but Im not that funny

[-] NABDad@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago

If you edit your comment, and Cethin deletes theirs, and you delete this one, and I delete mine, you can be a comedic genius for whoever reads it later!

[-] Dagnet@lemmy.world 10 points 1 year ago

Thats the equivalent of thinking of a really witty reply in the shower days after the altercation, Im pathetic but not THAT pathetic

Gay women are called lesbians because the woman credited with being the first historically confirmed homosexual woman, the Greek poet Sappho, was from Lesbos.

And Sapphire! All those blue gems are gay as fuuuuck

I've seen Steven Universe, I can confirm.

[-] Tar_alcaran@sh.itjust.works 10 points 1 year ago

Probably not. "Sappho" has Greek origins, "sapphire" is Hebrew is origin. They're likely not connected.

Ah, so because I am a transgender woman, I am a Roman!

[-] Piemanding@sh.itjust.works 3 points 1 year ago

Roman, let's go bowling!

[-] CuddlyCassowary@lemmy.world 19 points 1 year ago

Yes, technically my father is a straight Lesbian.

[-] Bruhh@lemmy.world 10 points 1 year ago

I thought they were American

Straight until it gets moist.

[-] shikogo@pawb.social 27 points 1 year ago

I wish this post had been titled lesbian rule.

[-] nifty@lemmy.world 8 points 1 year ago

But then how will the people know I am witty and clever? How?

[-] SnotFlickerman@lemmy.blahaj.zone 21 points 1 year ago

Lesbians Rule, in this case, literally.

[-] outer_spec@lemmy.blahaj.zone 20 points 1 year ago

well, that rule certainly isn’t straight

[-] proper@lemmy.world 11 points 1 year ago
