A is for Amazon, Adult and A mess


According to Amazon.com, most if not all, gay books are considered "Adult". Over the weekend, many gay books lost their sale rankings, due to them being...Adult?

I know books like Dirty Pictures and Meatmen are gay adult works. But books about RuPaul and raising a gay teen? That not adult erotic works of art.

Crazy mess, right?

So this is blowing up on Twitter and on other blogs. And there is a petition site in response to this change.

Maybe, this was a mistake or some frat boy joke, but if this isn't solved soon, there will be smoke in the city.

Imagine...Danny has two Mommies is considered PORN!
