Most importantly that we are all different and should be seen as equal to straights.
I think they tried to include too many sub-sets of the lesbian community without enough attention paid to any one to enable those unfamiliar with them to come to any kind of understanding. The one agressive in the show was a pretty good example of that. The only saving grace was Dr. Huang's comment that Papa C quoted above, and that was MUCH too little.

All in all, not a great show: neither in terms of representing us, nor in terms of entertainment value.
