Amusingly enough Mike, you shoot yourself in the foot in your last
sentence, in which you apply connotations for 'lesbian' other than
just being a homosexual female.

I'm aware you are doing this on purpose, with the intention of
demonstrating no-one complains when you do so that way round.

Unfortunately, I still have to pull the plug on it. Sorry :-)
