Sisters of Sappho


About us

Founded in 1996, Sisters of Sappho is a queer womyn's group at the University of Arizona. We provide support to lesbian, bisexual, transgendered, and questioning women in the Tucson community, consisting mostly of university students. We are a part of the University of Arizona's Women's Resource Center and Pride Alliance. For meetings/listserv information, please contact the WRC at 621-3919 or Pride Alliance at 621-7585.

What we do

Currently not meeting due to low membership, we are open to new leadership. Contact Pride Alliance if you are interested in becoming involved. Some of the things we've done in the past include camping trips, movie nights, basketball games, picnics, a film series, karaoke, potlucks, and various parties. In the future, we hope to go hiking, bowling, and more camping trips.

    Girls who put out are tramps. Girls who don't are ladies. This is, however, a rather archaic usage of the word. Should one of you boys happen upon a girl who doesn't put out, do not jump to the conclusion that you have found a lady. What you have probably found is a lesbian.
