Apple TV's Netflix Service Is Missing the Gay and Lesbian Category?
- acangiano 16y agoThe service I run (http://anynewbooks.com http://anynewbooks.com) happens to have a Gay and Lesbian category. When I first started it I couldn't believe how many people took the time to write me emails about how I was, pretty much, corrupting America. It was astonishing to me that the category would be so controversial, given that we offer book genres for pretty much anything else, including Christianity and Religion. The Gay category is also pretty challenging from a selection standpoint, given that relatively few good books come out on a weekly basis. Yet, I'd rather shut down the site that give in to bigots. I'm always disappointed when big companies give in so easily or outright avoid the issue altogether by pre-censoring the genre (note, I'm not saying that Apple is doing that in this specific instance).
