Lesbians battle in Greek court. (Can I watch?)

Authorities from the island of Lesbos have filed a law suit in a Greek court demanding that gay women stop using the word “lesbian”.

Gay rights advocates are worried that if the case succeeds, it could lead to a whole range of other legal action…

Already the Dutch are threatening to take similar action to protect the word “dyke”.

The Hush Puppies company is claiming “comfortable shoes” is a trade mark.

And the YWCA will be insisting that gay women dine elsewhere.
