According to him, "these ladies [i.e. lesbians] come to the island but they remain in a closed group. They dont leave any money there except at two of their own bars." That was about all I could stomach over my morning coffee. Next thing you know, some guy will be suing from the Isle of Man.

lesbos is a beautiful island and everybody should go there, gay or straight…

unless of course you have recently fled a war zone, in which case you wouldn’t want to end up there locked in a container while some official happily ignores your plea for asylum…

I hope to see the day when gay people enjoying themselves in gazi are not forced to go back into straight mode as soon as they leave the nightclub-not that I see that happening any time soon. as long as we have closeted politicians, mayors and artists who fear their career will be over the minute people find out about them, we will also have ghettos.

I have nothing about gay women but it would be better if they avoiding making 'hot spots' like a 2nd Mykonos! If they re asking to treat them as normal (which I am sure it is their right) better avoid forming ghetos! So we can all mix
