	Why would any decent person mention lesbians?

	There is no such thing as a lesbian. To say there are lesbians is a calumny upon the fairest of God's creatures.

	And if God were here now, he'd agree with me.

	Smite them, Lord.

 Basically, the gays and the aspies are responsible for just about  everything good in culture and technology But where are the women in this  picture? The lesbians?

 (it's an interesting cultural shift: there was a time not so long ago when  one of the predominant figurations of creativity was coded as virile and  often exuberantly heterosexual. There were no women in that picture
 either...)
