In time, nautical star tattoos have also gained a different significance. In the forties and the fifties, gays and lesbians were wearing these tattoos to recognize each other. Tracing back the nautical star tattoo history and the significance one may find a convincing legacy of the early sailors who used to get their hand tattooed by this popular symbol in an attempt to please the lady luck and to

Let's face facts here: real life lesbians don't all look like Gina Gershon or Jennifer Beals, both of whom are in fact not gay in real life but have played smoking hot lezzies on screen. In fact, there are plenty of panty-chasing ladies who are not all that attractive to men at all. On the other hand, the lesbian community has churned out a few hotties to further fuel our fantasies of being a fly
October is Breast Cancer awareness month and since some researchers and health care professionals believe that lesbians may be at greater risk for breast cancer then heterosexual women, I thought it would be appropriate to get some facts out to the lesbian community.

Anyone who has ever read my blog knows that I am a big supporter of same-sex marriage. Not just because I am a lesbian, but because I believe everyone should have equal rights and freedoms.

Athena the Lesbian is upset because Lesbians have rights too, not just lesbians.It took me a little while to figure out what she was talking about, but this is the gist:"Lesbians are suing lesbians for calling themselves lesbians and making it seem like all Lesbians are lesbians too, even if you're a Lesbian who's only attracted to men. And it's worse for male Lesbians."Athena the Lesbian was so upset, she almost couldn't blow me in the Comm closet the other day. But I assured her that a little fellatio would take her mind off the subject of lesbians and that it would help calm her nerves. Apparently it did calm her nerves but calmed my nerves even more because I completely forgot about lesbians of any sort. Athena the Lesbian, however, was talking about the sore subject of Lesbi
Since I started writing for this blog, I’ve wanted to write something about one of my favorite shows, Grey’s Anatomy. The problem was that I could never figure out what to say about Grey’s that would fit the theme of a website called “Lesbiatopia.” I mean, I could go on about how hot Kate Walsh is, but that’s kind of like telling you that the sky is blue… and anyway, she’s not technically on the show anymore. I could relate stories about how my friend and I used to watch this show, and rank the girls in order of hotness. (Addison usually won, followed by Callie.) But let's pretend that I’m not really that shallow.However, thanks to this week’s episode, which I’m sure has already inspired tons of fan fic, I can legitimately write about Grey’s Anatomy on a site c
Lindsay Lohan reportedly verbally abused Ashley Olsen after she spoke to her close friend Samantha Ronson.The 'Mean Girls' actress - who is rumored to be drinking again following her stint in rehab last year - was said to be furious when the former 'Full House' star chatted to DJ Samantha at New York nightspot Beatrice Inn on Friday (18.04.08).A source told the New York Post newspaper: "Samantha was getting a lot of attention which Lindsay didn't like. Ashley Olsen said hello to Samantha at the Beatrice, and Lindsay screamed at her, 'Get your 15-year-old 'Full House' ass away from my girlfriend.' "The following night, Lindsay had a blazing row with Sam - whose brother is producer Mark Ronson - because they weren't spending enough time together.An onlooker at New York's Hawaiian Tropic Zone
A lesser known fact is that word lesbian, popular for describing homosexual women, originates from the name of a Greek island called Lesbos. The association of the island with female homosexuality is due to the writing of the ancient Greek poet Sappho, who frequently expressed female to female love in her work and was a [...]
What's in a name? Sometimes not a lot, other times it is your very identity. If I was a Lesbian I would not be too pleased if everytime I told people I was one it provoked amusement, silly laughter and innuendo. That is apparently the sort of thing that happens to Lesbians every day. They have the good fortune to live on the Greek island of Lesbos. Now, as we know, female homosexuals have appropriated the name. In fact, for most people around the world, it is the latter they think of before considering the people of Lesbos (if they ever do).A similar fate beheld the people of the French region of Alsace. Alsatians are a people of distinct background with a language and culture. Canine it is not. For some reason, they managed to get dog owners and breeders in England to call the animal a Ge

So you think Americans file the most idiotic lawsuits—think again.Two residents of the Greek Island of Lesbos (a/k/a Lesvos), along with professional homophobe Dimitris Lambrou, have filed a lawsuit against an LGBT group asking that they be enjoined from using the term “lesbian.” They allege that the straight residents of Lesbos have suffered irreparable "psychological and moral rape" because the term has been hijacked by carpet munchers. Maybe they have an extremely small point. I suppose Okies wouldn't think it cool if the poet Sappho had heralded from Oklahoma, and the generally accepted term for female homosexuality was "Sooners." Wait—that wouldn't really be very descriptive of female affection and sexuality.Anyway, the Isle of Lesbos is a real place and has a long his
Cheryl Cole is one hot lady! Actually these recent snaps would suggest otherwise but we’ll pretend we didn’t notice. Despite her scarily skinny frame lesbians voting in an online poll have named the Girls Aloud beauty Britain’s top WAG! Cheryl bagged a whopping 43% of the overall votes beating the likes of Alex Curran who came second and Posh Spice who crept in at third. We guess if things don’t work out with Ashley it’s always nice to know Cheryl has other options.

Here is a little news from our informant inside the Secret Lesbian Viking Enclave…Norway, which has had a domestic partnership registry since 1993, recently publicized plans to open marriage to same-sex couples. The new law would permit gay and lesbian couples to marry in churches, adopt children, and receive state-funded medical assistance in getting pregnant.The Norwegian Minister of Children and Equality, Anniken Huitfeldt said:Letting gay couples marry won't weaken marriage as an institution; rather, it will strengthen it. Marriage won't be worth less because more can take part in it.And she also said the new act isan historic step towards equality.Some members of the coalition government have said they will vote would oppose the bill.Norway’s current Registered Partnership Act gra
If you are Top Chef fan, than you will know that both gay men and lesbians have graced the shows presence over the last few seasons. In fact, BRAVO is probably one of the gayest cable television channels ever and we can probably thank the effeminate stylings of Queer Eye for the Straight Guy for really breaking into the "gay genre" of Cable TV. BRAVO has also brought us our favorite fag hag, Kathy Griffin; the dyke with the washboard abs, Jackie Warner; Mr. Fashion, Tim Gunn; and of course the many artistic talents of Project Runway. If BRAVO was any gayer, they'd slap a rainbow flag on it and call it LOGO.This Season, also known as Season 4 Chicago, there are not one but TWO lesbians on the show.

* Originally uploaded by simpsontwin I knew that I had PCOS before I knew I was a lesbian. I read an article in a magazine that talked about PCOS and I had many of the symptoms that were mentioned in that article. Honestly at the time I just thought I was imagining things and didn’t look into it at all; I pretty much forgot about the article until later on. The many symptoms I had would eventually make me prone to miscarriage and infertility, amongst many other things. After losing a few pregnancies in the early weeks, I was blessed to have the two children that I have now. I was diagnosed with PCOS (which stands for Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome) after I had my first child, because that was when I started to get really sick. It started slowly at first, just a couple of days off o

Paper Clips! Originally uploaded by Tyler Howarth As a lesbian mom, I have unique concerns when it comes to my legal issues and financial estate. I am in a committed lesbian relationship with children from a previous marriage. The issues of child custody, visitation and support are a given whenever children are involved in a relationship. However, a heterosexual marriage is afforded many rights automatically upon union whereas a same-sex relationship has limited to zero rights in many parts of the world. Whenever a person enters a committed relationship they are entering a form of partnership. There are certain responsibilities relevant to the relationship that each party is expected to maintain. The government sometimes has laws and/or programs in place to provide aid and support

Ok, I admit I tuned in to see what in the heck Puff Daddy was doing playing a serious role in the ABC production of A Raisin in the Sun. But my gosh, it was Diddy in the City-- Sean Coombs was brilliant, as was the rest of the cast. Although it is terrific that ABC was able to fulfill its quota for Black History Month, I hope the fact P Diddy was there made the message contemporary to viewers. For the story of the proud African-American family, in South Chicago, which continually had to defer their dreams, needs to be heard in a culture, where hope is trivialized by reality shows, as well as political campaigns—and we pretend that racism has been extinguished. A Raisin in the Sun opened on Broadway in 1959. It was the first Broadway play written by a black woman, and the first Broadway
You're probably wondering what in the world lovers (and lesbians) have to do with Guitar Hero. Well, you'll be surprised to learn there's a lot more than you think.It all started back at the end of January. I purchased Guitar Hero as a gift for my girlfriend, who had been raving about her playing experience over the holidays. In fact, she wouldn't shut up about how awesome it was which shocked me because up until that point in life, the girl would rather wash dishes than play a video game. I had to see what this alluring game had to offer, why the masses were talking about how it was hotter than disco at Studio 54 and why my anti-video-game girlfriend seemed to have fallen into a Guitar Hero trance.Needless to say, we had it up and running the same day I brought that little bundle of jo

Sarah Paulson
December 17, 1974 -
Sarah is a Golden Globe-nominated American actress who was a series regular on the cult television show American Gothic and the WB series Jack & Jill (1999), playing the character “Elisa Cronkite”. In addition, she had a minor role in the HBO series Deadwood, and was a focal character in an episode of the critically acclaimed FX series Nip/Tuck. She briefly appeared on the NBC series Leap of Faith (2002) as the main character, but the show was short-lived. In 2004, she had a supporting role in the ABC series The D.A., but that show also ended after a few episodes. Sarah’s movie credits include Down with Love, What Women Want, The Other Sister, Levitation, and Serenity.
In 2005, Paulson was indirectly outed by girlfriend Cherry Jones during the 59th Tony Awards, when Jones thanked her by the name “Laura Wingfield” (the character Paulson was then playing in The Glass Menagerie) durin
This week’s Notable Lesbian is:
Ada Dwyer Russell
1863 - 1952
Ada Russell was a Mormon actress of the stage. She performed on stage in Broadway and London. Russell married, and was widowed, and in 1909 met writer Amy Lowell. The two entered into long-term lesbian relationship, or a “Boston marriage” (the term for a 19th century romantic female relationship) beginning in 1912, which would last until Lowell’s death in 1925. Russell was the subject of many of Lowell’s explicit poems, such as the Taxi. Russell was also the executrix of Amy Lowell’s will, and burned all her items upon request.
Interesting tid bit:
In “The Taxi,” Lowell conveys a strong sense of her separation from Russell and her pain. Lowell also left her fortune in a trust to Ada Russell.

Martina Navratilova
October 18, 1956 –
Martina Navratilova is a former World No. 1 women’s tennis player. She won 18 Grand Slam singles titles, 31 Grand Slam women’s doubles titles (an all-time record), and 10 Grand Slam mixed doubles titles. She reached the Wimbledon singles final 12 times, including 9 consecutive years from 1982 through 1990, and won the women’s singles title at Wimbledon a record 9 times. In 1981, shortly after being granted U.S. citizenship, Navratilova came out publicly about her sexual orientation. She said she feared her sexual orientation might disrupt her application for American citizenship following her defection from Czechoslovakia, a country in which, she points out, “gays were sent to insane asylums and lesbians never came out of the closet.”

In 1972 at the age of 15, Navratilova won the Czech republic national tennis championship. In her autobiography, Being Myself
On November 26, the Jefferson County Board of Education voted 4-3 to ensure protection for gay and lesbian employees under its harassment and employment policies.Jim Waters of the Bluegrass Institute responded in opposition saying, "Louisville’s school bureaucrats dedicated an enormous amount of time toward satisfying a small minority while ignoring the enormous number of voice messages and e-mails they received opposing this policy."Was he suggeting that one's right not to be harassed ought to be conferred by some local majority?He says he' s not “anti-public education." He's just against the "monopolistic, one-size-fits-all system that gives [parents] little choice, creates lots of strife and serves up large helpings of mediocrity with side orders of failure."Well.

Maya J. Marcel-Keyes
May 23, 1985 -
Maya Keyes (born May 23, 1985), is an American political activist and daughter of United States Ambassador Alan Keyes, former Republican presidential, senatorial candidate, and adviser to Ronald Reagan. After the 2004 campaign, Marcel-Keyes became a consultant for Keyes’ Illinois office. However, on January 20, 2005, she participated in a march protesting the second inauguration of President George W. Bush. Keyes relieved his daughter from her duties and requested that she move out of an apartment funded by Keyes’ political organizations in Chicago. Marcel-Keyes wrote in her online journal that her parents had given her two weeks to move out of the apartment, and had effectively left her “jobless and … homeless.” She also discussed this series of events in an interview with The Advocate.

Lesbians: can't live with 'em, can't live without 'em. It's inevitable that when you have two women dating, living together and sharing their pets, you're bound to encounter drama. I have a friend whose three-year relationship has just gone down the drain. It's always sad to see a relationship come to an end; we've all been down that road before and know how heartbreakingly painful it can be. The one thing I notice with lesbian break-ups is that they are never short and sweet. When lesbians say, "it's over", it's usually done over a 3 - 6 month period dotted with emotional "I love you's" and fanatical "I hate you's". Why is it that gay women have such a hard time ending their relationships? I'm no relationship expert but my guess is that women are too nice to say "I don't love you anymore" but too cruel to have the decency to just walk away.One thing I've noticed during the demolition of a lesbian relationship (that is not mutually terminated) is that at least one of the
