By NICHOLAS PAPHITIS, Associated Press Writer
Wed Apr 30, 10:22 AM ETATHENS, Greece - A Greek court has been asked to draw the line between the natives of the Aegean Sea island of Lesbos and the world's gay women.
Three islanders from Lesbos — home of the ancient poet Sappho, who praised love between women — have taken a gay rights group to court for using the word lesbian in its name.
One of the plaintiffs said Wednesday that the name of the association, Homosexual and Lesbian Community of Greece, "insults the identity" of the people of Lesbos, who are also known as Lesbians.
"My sister can't say she is a Lesbian," said Dimitris Lambrou. "Our geographical designation has been usurped by certain ladies who have no connection whatsoever with Lesbos," he said.
The three plaintiffs are seeking to have the group barred from using "lesbian" in its name and filed a lawsuit on April 10. The other two plaintiffs are women.
Also called Mytilene, after its capital, Lesbos is famed as the birthplace of Sappho. The island is a favored holiday destination for gay women, particularly the lyric poet's reputed home town of Eressos.
"This is not an aggressive act against gay women," Lambrou said. "Let them visit Lesbos and get married and whatever they like. We just want (the group) to remove the word lesbian from their title."
He said the plaintiffs targeted the group because it is the only officially registered gay group in Greece to use the word lesbian in its name. The case will be heard in an Athens court on June 10.
Sappho lived from the late 7th to the early 6th century B.C. and is considered one of the greatest poets of antiquity. Many of her poems, written in the first person and intended to be accompanied by music, contain passionate references to love for other women.
Lambrou said the word lesbian has only been linked with gay women in the past few decades. "But we have been Lesbians for thousands of years," said Lambrou, who publishes a small magazine on ancient Greek religion and technology that frequently criticizes the Christian Church.
Very little is known of Sappho's life. According to some ancient accounts, she was an aristocrat who married a rich merchant and had a daughter with him. One tradition says that she killed herself by jumping off a cliff over an unhappy love affair.
Lambrou says Sappho was not gay. "But even if we assume she was, how can 250,000 people of Lesbian descent — including women — be considered homosexual?"
The Homosexual and Lesbian Community of Greece could not be reached for comment.

Congratulations Princess Daisy Boo,
weight watchers is a great program and if followed you can't help but loose weight....I joined in 2003 and lost 40 pounds, I found out I was diabetic last year and have lost an additional 30 pounds since then.
You can do it and you should do it for yourself, it's a lifestyle change and one that you will not regret making.

My daughter tried to do that last Fall, but she has some problems with Anxiety disorder etc. If she drinks or doesn't take her meds she is in trouble. It sure scared us and her too. She is better now and 4 months pregnant.
Velvetann, so happy that your daughter did not succeed and is doing better.
Congratulations on the baby, I'm expecting another great grandson in August and he will be named for my son.

For others of us, everyday is a struggle to make a good day happen. If I don't work on it, I won't have one.
I can so identify with this...my eldest son committed suicide last May 26th 5 days before his 46th birthday, it's a struggle just to face getting out of bed each day but I have no other choice I have to struggle through.
I hope your situation gets better and you have more happy days.

Do you think the legal department is behind the book study change?
by DT indo you think the governing body is really concerned about gas prices, or are they just trying to protect themselves from pedophilia lawsuits and liability claims for accidents in private homes?
