In your zeal to protect me from myself, of course, you managed to leave content that I find singularly repulsive online (really, exploring the human condition is bad, but Mein Kampf is just fine?).Īs a heterosexual, happily married adult female, I am deeply offended by this decision. Somehow, the brain trust of your company has decided to protect the "entire" Amazon customer base by restricting access to content that someone (who?) decided was offensive. The move has raised the ire of heterosexuals, including Kassia Krozser, who wrote an open letter to the online retailer:

"Homophobia: A History" by Bryan Fone (nonfiction, focus on history and the forms prejudice against homosexuality has taken over the years).

"The Dictionary of Homophobia: A Global History of Gay & Lesbian Experience," edited by Louis-George Tin (non-fiction, history and social issues).

Charlie Cochrane's "Lessons in Love" (gay romance with no sex).

Probst's YA novel "The Filly" about a young man in the wild West discovering that he's gay (gay romance, no sex)

Radclyffe Hill's classic novel about lesbians in Victorian times, The Well of Loneliness, and which contains not one sentence of sexual description.

The petition supporters note that the following titles with gay and lesbian themes are no longer ranked on Amazon:

Alan Moore's "Lost Girls" (which is a very explicit sexual graphic novel).

Bertrice Smal's "Skye o'Malley," (which are all explicit heterosexual romances).

Kathleen Woodiwiss' "The Wolf and the Dove" (explicit heterosexual romance).

Rosemary Rogers' "Sweet Savage Love" (explicit heterosexual romance)."Playboy: The Complete Centerfolds" by Chronicle Books (pictures of over 600 naked women).
