FLAGRANTE DELICTO

by iambe



this series was inspired by a friend recounting the arrest of two womyn caught "flagrante delicto" making love in a country still mired in misogyny/male supremacism. it could be almost anywhere.

flagrante delicto: adverb: 1. In the very act of committing an offense; red-handed. 2. In the act of having sex.

from medieval latin, flagrante dlict: "while the crime is blazing." though dlict is actually the ablative of dlictum, meaning offense .


Lesbianism: the blazing offense
flagrant love
more flaunting innocence....
