Another data point for AmazonFail

Apparently, Amazon didn't just de-rank GBLT themed books, but books about disability and sexuality too.

Way to stay classy, Amazon.

I think I'll be ordering online through Powells and Borders from now on, and maybe scout out the local independents.

It's absolutely disgusting that they thought they could get away with that. Just as well I only buy from brick and mortar retail.

I just this week bought some fairly expensive children's books for one of my nephews. That is the LAST order I'm placing through Amazon until they get their heads out of their asses.

And considering next month I was going to buy another set of expensive books from them for the other boychick, I suppose Powells or Borders is going to pick up a good bit of money from me.

Also books about aging and sexuality.

Things that make stupid people go "ew?"

Further searching - some, but not all, books about sexuality in general have been deranked.
