This week’s episode of The Real L Word, those lovable lesbians of Weho, takes us to the halfway point of the second season, which is either good news or bad news depending on which side of the polarizing line you fall. This week Cori and Kacy get sperminated, Whitney makes a dildo mold from her guy friend's "dong," Romi goes to Vegas and Sajdah talks lesbian sex and scissoring with her mom.

OK. First things first: Turkey’s proximity to some more dangerous areas of the world has given it a bad rap. While a move toward a more conservative government has prompted more women to wear head scarves (and even the occasional burka), Istanbul is as modern — and safe — as any other European city. You’ll even find a couple of lesbian bars, but in this Muslim-centric city, gay couples might want to keep PDA to a minimum.
