such a thing. I offer the following criticism in good faith. Because of its general misinterpretation and frequently unpleasant connotations, I have always been averse to the term 'Lesbian', notwithstanding the fact that Webster's (Collegiate, Sixth Edition) does accord it a secondary place, i.e., acceptable usage. It would be pleasing to me, for one, if the magazine's worthwhile department called 'Lesbiana' could be given an equally worthwhile title. Even an unimaginative 'Publications' or 'Readers Read' to keep pace with 'Readers Respond', for example, would be preferable to the term in question, it seems to me."
