And to all those who say they are just creating an adult section, ask your self why children's books that try to discuss homosexuality delicately are delisted, but racy explicit romances is not.
Are you kidding? It's just a demographics thing. If the population were mainly homosexual, you'd see the reverse. It's just the normal, hey I want my kid to read/absorb only material that will make them like me thing. It's not really a big thing to me. I understand where it's coming from. I'm more amazed that slashdot seems to view it as end of the world crap when it actually happens. Another thing that you might want to think of is that all major religious books will hardly ever be banned/restricted other than categorized as religious. This is because the millions of folks that do buy that stuff would either complain or worse go some where else to buy it.
I'm sure that if you are willing to fill out a lengthy form of products/people/ideas that you dislike/hate then amazon and others would be thrilled to attempt to limit all that stuff from your search returns. That'd require actual work though. It would be easier just to through everything that has some one complain about it as adult and then give the adult section unlimited stuff. Heck, I think most politics, religion, and explicit sexual related material could be safely labeled adult and most wouldn't complain.
