Today instead of dropping my children off at the library after school, I decided to go inside since I haven't gone in quite some time. So as my kids either worked on their homework or browsed movies, I wondered around the fiction and non-fiction sections and I located some of my favorite Authors and reminsced over some stories I have alreay read, then it hit me I saw plenty of heterosexul stories but absolutely not one of LGBT Authors, fiction or non-fiction, so I asked and the Librarian put her hand to her chest like I offended her and told me they dont carry those kinds of books. I mean really a PUBLIC library....I was so upset by this, I just told her she was missing out on some great stories and not just the romance but the informative young adult coming of age stories and so much more. Huh, 2013 and topics like homosexuality are being pushed under a rug or in a closet like a dirty little secret, no wonder people are the hateful bastards that they are, they are not being taught to be. Such a shame.
