Sappho was a Greek woman who lived on the Isle of Lesbos. She and many other women lived on this island while their men went off to war. These women became devoted to each other and Sappho was known for the love poems that she wrote to women. It has never been recorded that they had sexual relationships with each other. If the definition of a lesbian is 'a woman who loves women', then Sappho was most likely to be the earliest known lesbian.
Sappho is so powerful because she was one of the best lyric poets in ancient Greece. Instead of being a follower Sappho decided to be a powerful, influential, and strong woman. Some of her best accomplishments were the poems she wrote about how woman are so beautiful and wonderful.
