Amazon Web Services has banned a popular book from its store for framing transgender identity as a mental illness. The Seattle, Washington-based, multinational tech oligarch wrote in a March 11 letter to four United States Senators: “We reserve the right not to sell certain content. All retailers make decisions about what selection they choose to offer.” Amazon continues to sell books framing being female as a kink identity. Books eroticizing men being “made into women” through humiliation, cross-dressing, forced submission, rape and sex slavery proliferate its listings, with such ‘forced feminization’ titles as Sissy Magazine: 8 Ways to Turn Your Husband into a Girl, ‘sissy porn’ titles like The Sissy Sex Trade and sissy hypno titles like 101 Bimbo Mantras: 101 Hypnotic Mantras For Bimbos, T-Girls, And Sissies.
On February 24, 2021, Senators Marco Rubio, Mike Braun, Mike Lee and Josh Hawley wrote a letter (pdf) to Jeff Bezos, CEO of Amazon, to ask why Ryan Anderson’s book, “which reached the top of two of Amazon’s best-seller lists before it was even released in 2018,” had been removed from Amazon’s website and Kindle and Audible services after it “supposedly violated a vague, undefined ‘offensive content’ standard.”
According to the overview of Anderson’s When Harry Became Sally: Responding to the Transgender Moment, the book asks the questions:
Can a boy be ‘trapped’ in a girl’s body? Can modern medicine ‘reassign’ sex? Is our sex ‘assigned’ TO us in the first place? What is the most loving response to a person experiencing a conflicted sense of gender? What should our law say on matters of ‘gender identity’?
When Harry Became Sally provides thoughtful answers to questions arising from our transgender moment. Drawing on the best insights from biology, psychology, and philosophy, Ryan Anderson offers a nuanced view of human embodiment, a balanced approach to public policy on gender identity, and a sober assessment of the human costs of getting human nature wrong.
“By removing this book from its marketplaces and services, Amazon has unabashedly wielded its outsized market share to silence an important voice merely for the crime of violating woke groupthink,” the Senators wrote in the letter. “The internet is at its best when it is an open marketplace of ideas that brings people together to share, learn from one another, and engage in a range of commercial activities.”
Brian Huseman, Vice President of Public Policy at Amazon responded on behalf of the corporation (pdf): “As to your specific question about When Harry Became Sally, we have chosen not to sell books that frame LGBTQ+ identity as a mental illness.” The company said its policy had changed since 2018 when it began selling the book in its store.
Using the search engine Google to conduct a search of the Amazon website for such key phrases as ‘sissy porn’ and ‘forced feminization’ produces a large number of hits.
The description displayed on Amazon for the book Sissy Magazine: 8 Ways to Turn Your Husband into a Girl advises women who married ‘beta-males’ who cannot sexually please them to transform these husbands into women:
At heart, every woman desires to cuckold her husband. If you were lucky enough to find a real Alpha-male to marry, it probably wouldn’t be necessary. […] A lot of us women though […] end up marrying beta-males who are so lacking in masculinity that they are practically girls, just like us. […] A lot of these methods are going to seem cruel, but trust me – your husband going to thank you in the end. In my experience, it is only through a strict course of humiliation that a man can overcome the trauma of […] losing his penis.
Promising husbands, “when you look in the mirror, you’ll be attracted to yourself,” the description continues:
I am not talking about simply crossdressing at home. If you want to become a real girl, you wont be a silly husband in his wife’s panties. You are really going to look like a supermodel.
The Amazon description for book 1 of the 11-book series The Sissy Sex Trade reads: “Kevin, an English computer programmer, goes to New York City for a short holiday. Kevin has a secret life. He is in actual fact a transgendered BDSM submissive, called Kelly […]. While on holiday in NYC Kevin makes the mistake of walking late at night in the Bronx. He is kidnapped by an African American gang, and transformed into a sissy slut, much to Kelly’s delight.” The book is part of a trend in the genre hypersexualizing black men as beasts who can best “sissify” other men. Numerous other books on Amazon catering to this racist fetish niche include Sissy Sluts for Black Daddies, All White Boys Are Sissies in the Black New World Order and Sissy for the Black World Order: Blacked Future. In The Sissy Sex Trade Book 3, “Kelly, the happy sissy slut, slave, bimbo, porn star, returns […]. Her owners have done a deal with ten rival gangs to sell them each a sissy slut for $1,000,000, as long as the sissy slut is almost identical to Kelly.”
Genevieve Gluck, who has extensively researched the connection between ‘sissy hypno’ and transgenderism, notes: “Sissy hypno incorporates audio files that aim to ‘brainwash’ male listeners into believing they are women. Through repeated mantras, sissy hypno content creators claim to turn men into ‘bimbos’ and ‘f*ck dolls’.” 101 Bimbo Mantras: 101 Hypnotic Mantras For Bimbos, T-Girls, And Sissies (Bimbo Mantra Series), available on Amazon Books, promises to help its audience “reach your pink haze bliss.” Sissy hypno audio works are sold on Audible, Amazon’s subsidiary.
According to Codex Group LLC, Amazon dominates the US market, with 53% of all book sales and 80% of all ebook sales made through the company and its subsidiaries.
When Harry Became Sally: Responding to the Transgender Moment is currently available in Barnes & Nobles and on Apple Books.
