/* Noun */

One of the admins removed a third definition of Sodomitess without explanation. However, readers who have found a usage of this third definition on the internet may find the entry more difficult to read without the third definition being present, so I am adding the definition here for clarity:

3 (capitalized) a female resident of Sodom

Quotation: "Lot married a Sodomitess and had two daughters."
