First of all, dyke is not a good word to call lesbians. And also it’s unfair to expect them to build things against super strong storms, construction is mostly a hobby for most of them. And third- oh you’re talking about dams.
Yeah, I’ve been bamboozled by this before. Found out that both “dike” and “dyke” mean “water barrier” but also can be slurs.
I guess it depends on context and audience, though, I hope the context is clear in this case. :P
Edit: Also, “dam” doesn’t fit since it’s an island and not a river or lake. The island does have dams, but those are not nearly as important as the dikes.
