I feel I've already explained my perspective on this. However to add a comment on just one point of the statement here:

the islanders are called lesbosans not lesbians so nobody with a half a brain would confuse them

I think this is not accurate. I think before the term was appropriated, "Lesbian" referred to Lesbos, things from Lesbos, etc. I have never heard the term "Lesbosan". This is what I see from wikipedia:

Before the mid-19th century, the word lesbian referred to any derivative or aspect of Lesbos, including a type of wine. (wikipedia)
