  11. Lesbian
    Lesbian is a term, first coined in the late 19th century, for female homosexuality. The term applies excessively to females, and as such male jokes about themselves being a lesbian because they find females sexually attractive, are actually rather ironic in that they question the perpetrator's sex!

After some denials the queen herself admitted that this was true; but denied that she had misconducted herself since her marriage. Some fresh information, however, very soon came to light showing that she had been unchaste since her marriage; a bill of attainder was passed through parliament, and on the 13th of February 1542 the queen was beheaded. read more
