Stupid Lesbians

A Greek court yesterday threw out the lawsuit brought by some folks from the island of Lesbos charging a gay rights group with demeaning its waterlocked citizenry by hijacking the word "Lesbian."

They say the name of the group Homosexual and Lesbian Community of Greece "insults the identity" of the natives there.

Dimitris Lambrou, the Lesbian dude who spearheaded the suit, is all wound up because he says, “My sister can’t say she is a Lesbian."

I have no idea why not, but that's what he claims. Maybe she's just not ready to leave the closet quite yet. I'm just surmising.

Yeah, evidently that's his main concern. Frankly I think he's probably got a bigger issue really when it comes to his own Lesbian pride than that of his sister's. Again, only a guess.

He did deny that the suit was homophobic in any way, of course, but still pointed out that the use of the L-word "violates the human rights of the islanders, and disgraces them around the world."

The dismissed case may now move on to the big time European Court, the attorneys threaten. Something must be done, after all!

It's so stupid it's funny somehow.

Is "Gay" next word up on the court's misnomer docket? Because as it turns out, believe it or not, most happy guys are not polesmokers nor happy ladies carpetmunchers. I'm just saying.

And then, what to do about that island of Dildo????

  1. LOL! Did he think everyone would think that people who lived in the town were lesbians including the men?

    I think he has shamed the town more than any word could ever do.

  2. Your right. It's so stupidly funny...that I don't even get it...

    And omg...that "island?" Never heard of it, but thought this part was funny...

    Today there is no human population on Dildo Island, but archaeologists have found clear evidence that people have been drawn to the island over thousands of years. What is the attraction?

    *giggling like a fourth grader*

  3. I know, the Dildo thing was very immature, but I thought it was funny. But really even without native Dildo population, it's just as ridiculous as the Lesbos guy.

  4. Seriously? In Greece...I mean hasn't that island been around like, forever? Suddenly, the history forgotten and a lawsuit? Almost sounds like a joke.

  5. No joke. Stupidity always trumps time and history.

I Think

I think I'm bored blogging. I think I'm done with it. I think what's the point? I think you should check out my blogroll instead. I think they say stuff better anyway.

Don't Ask, Don't Tell - Just Do It

Like most other gay folks, I was gratified the other night to hear President Obama announce at the State of the Union address his intention to put repealing Don't Ask, Don't Tell on the agenda for 2010. Of course we were all hyped when we heard it the first time, too. Back when he was pandering the rainbow coalition for votes during his campaign, pledging to be a "fierce advocate" for LGBT rights. To start working toward getting rid of DADT during his first year as president was part of that promise. Not that he has totally snubbed us, I guess, but tagging him a "fierce advocate" is probably a stretch . It's really little wonder that much of the queer community reacted approvingly, but also with a fair amount of skepticism, the other night after hearing him vow again to do what he vowed once before with nothing gotten done so far. This DADT thing, I wouldn't think, should be such a big ordeal to get over and done with in short order. Even military p...

Hung on the Cross

So what, I'm not very mature for my age. I don't care, I'm easily amused because of it, and I enjoy being amused. Like this picture of a crucifix which was hoisted a couple of months ago above the main altar at the St. Charles Borromeo Catholic church in Oklahoma: I can come up with lots of hilariously inappropriate captions here, some that even I am embarrassed to admit thinking up, despite my unabashed crudity. I would share but probably everyone else is too sophisticated to see the humor. Plus, I really don't want to go to Hell. I'm guessing that there are an awful lot of Okie parishioners down there at the church where this is hung for real, who I reckon wouldn't appreciate my sense of humor about it, either. They are, in general, hugely offended by it instead, because they see nothing funny whatsoever about displaying Jesus' ginormous penis in church, not in the least bit! Seems as though this has caused quite a "deep divide" among members o...
