Sadly, some people will not want to celebrate Lesbian Day, or Lesbian Visibility Week, which is why May 17 has been marked as International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia, and Transphobia. The point is, we need to celebrate lesbians.
It’s basically the same as Lesbian Visibility Week, except that it’s in October and it’s only for 24 hours. There is hardly a month of the year where LGBTQ identities are not being paraded, celebrated, cheered, and promoted.Īustralians get a second chance to honour lesbians on October 8, which is International Lesbian Day. It’s a crowded playing field.Īnyway, readers ruing the fact that lesbian week is half over and they’ve not yet had a chance to celebrate should not despair. This, of course, makes International Lesbian Visibility Week very confusing since, if even people with male appendages can be lesbians, then literally anyone could be a lesbian. When asked recently if some women have male reproductive organs he replied: ‘You’re in danger of inciting hatred against people (by asking that question).’ What Mayor Khan cannot find time for – aside from stopping knife crime – is defining ‘women’, which seems a little odd if you are going to fly the flag for lesbians. All in a day’s work for the London Mayor. Still, if it were not for the mayor’s lesbian banner, proudly fluttering atop the city’s chief administrative building, people would likely be so distracted by the war in Ukraine and rising fuel prices that London’s lesbians would have gone unappreciated.Įmptying bins. Sadly, Mayor Khan ran out of tweet space to list specific lesbian contributions, so the public was left to imagine. London Mayor Sadiq Khan was quick to raise the lesbian flag (yes, there is a flag for women who sleep with each other) from City Hall ‘to celebrate London’s lesbian communities and their contributions to the city’s past and present’.Īh yes, the great lesbian achievements of London. I don’t know if that means lesbians will be getting around in Hi-Vis jackets, or if it means that we need to point them out. It’s International Lesbian Visibility Week.
