Acronym for an 'Old Wise Lesbian'.

This lesbian is often a professor, was alive during the AIDS pandemic, and is a fierce feminist. She is most likely a K.D. Lang and Tracy Chapman fan, and prefers malt over hops. She has contempt for most men as a result of years fighting the hegemony and has had dinner with Gloria Steinem. She has a strong political relationship with the word lesbian and is reluctant to be referred to by any other term. Her sense of humour is sarcastic, occasionally self deprecating, and very sharp.

Unlike twinks with older queens, young lesbians do not seek sexual advice or sex from OWLs. Rather, they seek political discourse and the occasional low-level flirt over a London fog.
"Dude! I had no idea your mom was an OWL! Can I have coffee with her sometime?"

Person 2: "Are you kidding me!? Ellen is a very fuckable OWL"

Middle-aged, nouveau riche, stuck up woman - found predominantely in the shopping centres of Western Europe. 10 years ago they would have been a humble but worthwhile housewife, now they are obnoxious, soulless demons, living only for their next golden purchase - trampling all in their path.
A horrible product of capitalism and god only knows how their twisted offspring will turn out. It may be time to head for the hills.
"Give me that. Get this for me. I haven't got all day. Oh it is terrible. The world revolves around me you know."
"You ridiculous owl. You are a disgusting travesty. Your manners are atrocious and your predictability makes me want to vomit. Farewell."
