Isn’t this ranking based on sales? Perhaps people are not buying gay books. This seems like a stupid thing to complain about...who cares. I have seen threads here from conservatives complaining about this too when the conservative books fall off the chart...perhaps instead of complaining buying a book might be more adventagous. People just love to complain about EVERYTHING.
A cry of discrimination would be if straight porn is sold and gay porn isn’t. both are still sold, just not listed compared to other titles.
And maybe some gay publishers screamed that straight porn ranked way, way too high and couldn’t really be that much more popular. So delisting the ranks was a way of capitulating.
No, that isn't an option because Amazon admits that they aren't ranking the books on purpose. Amazon under fire (^)
FTA:
In consideration of our entire customer base, we exclude "adult" material from appearing in some searches and best seller lists. Since these lists are generated using sales ranks, adult materials must also be excluded from that feature.
