List of Xena episodes

Comedic episode in which Xena and Gabrielle save Genia, a young virgin, from sacrifice by religious fanatics.

Lots of lesbian subtext and affirmation of the Xena-Gabrielle relationship: Xena says her breasts are taken, Xena & Gabrielle have lots of playful splashing in the water, there's a Sappho connection ... plus Xena in drag.

Sappho poem

There's a moment when I look at you
And no speech is left in me.
My tongue breaks, then fire races under my skin
And I tremble,
And grow pale,
For I am dying of such love.
