I'm sure that by now everyone is aware of the fact that Amazon has targeted GLBT books, classifying all GBLT books as 'adult' fiction regardless of content (including classics like The Well of Loneliness, YA novels that have no overt sexual content and autobiographies by people such as John Barrowman and Stephen Fry.

However, Smart Bitches, Trashy Books have a really smart and snarky response: Amazon Rank.

Amazon Rank

amazon rank
Function: verb
Inflected Form(s): amazon ranked

1. To censor and exclude on the basis of adult content in literature (except for Playboy, Penthouse, dogfighting and graphic novels depicting incest orgies).
2. To make changes based on inconsistent applications of standards, logic and common sense.
