I think wikitherapy is what a lot of people already do, it's distributed and collaborative, and it's when we hang out with a lot of different people and talk about and listen to things that matter to us, thereby experiencing our commonality...

In true if fussy wiki fashion, I offer a slight correction: it's a term, not a phrase, and furthermore, one Lil Yang coined it a few months ago. But he made a wussy hyphenated word while you boldly leapfrogged the ordinary progression of compound words. It's such a lovely and useful portmanteau, though, I'm surprised it hadn't hit the street earlier or harder - Yang's blog entry was the only substantive result on Google today.

Oh, yoiks--you are correct. It is a term.

And I didn't bother to google it, possibly because almost every other good term/phrase/pun I come up with ("Bronte's Inferno" "Blog-avad-gita" "niblings") has been used before.

(Not "burgerking" or "les-beens", though.)

What's a les-been. Is that one of those college girls who has sex with women but then suddenly gets straight when she's out of school? We call them LUGs. Lesbian Until Graduation.

Who's "we"? The Lesbian Verification Committee? People for Truth in Lesbianism? Horny readers of the Penthouse "Letters" section?

That is correct: it is the sworn duty of the Lesbian Verification Committee to make certain that women claiming to be lesbian verify that fact and do not instead fall into other categories (such as "straight," "bi," or "completely unlikely fantasy construction but damn a whole lot of fun." Extensive testing is carried out by our dedicated team of scientifically disinterested and carefully trained observers, who videotape the proceedings to be studied later in close detail in order to catch any telltale signals that may have escaped notice during the initial, sometimes distracting, testing procedure. (I am very tempted to create a Wikipedia entry on this...bwah-hah-hah-ha!)

It's part of the Patriot Act. We have to keep these Wellesley grads in check, because you know... they hate our freedom!

Just make sure you give me credit for the term, "Lesbian Verification Committee". I like the way you think, 2fs. I volunteer to be the "completely unlikely fantasy construction" component of your experiment.
