A greeting of Telugu film-origins commonly used by people in full-white attire. Holding up any sharp object in your hand, like a pencil, while making the greeting is considered auspicious.

Referring to women who are sexually or romantically attracted to other women. Applies to both lesbians and bisexual women, as it is only the same-sex attraction that matters, not any other attractions the women may have.

Originates from the Greek poet Sappho, a bisexual woman from the Isle of Lesbos, from which we get the term lesbian.
