Madison County Public Library administrators were asked to go over a list of potentially "sexually explicit" books to be moved from the children's and young adult section to the adult section. The majority of these books were about the LGBTQ community. At least one was added to the list because the author's last name is Gay.

    I may be off my rocker here but I will bet the author has a discrimination lawsuit, if he finds a cleaver enough lawyer to argue the semantics of it… also gay used to and still does mean happy and was used as late as the 80s in the USA… it only recently changed since the 90s to mean an orientation… so I bet this author could have an interesting day in court…
