History and language fact: lesbians are also known as
Sapphites. Both words refer to ancient Greece, where the poet Sappho molested little girls on the island of Lesbos, in the same way that men molested little boys in other parts of Greece. That is, the literal historical meaning iof the word "lesbian" itself would be "An adult woman who molests little girls"; be sure to mention this important etymological fact to any lesbian you meet.
