Shirtless, Androgynous Male Model Banned (gasp)
Come on Borders what are you afraid of? Would the cover be better for you if it had a clear plastic wrapper around it and a sticker that said “not normal” or “obscene” as a disclaimer? Have you not looked at the covers of the magazine on our own shelves lately? It’s okay to be gay now. Really I promise. Let’s make a bet. I bet you could actual make money off the gays by leaving covers like this on the shelf. You like money don’t you? ~ AB

According to Dossier Co-Founder and Creative Director Skye Parrott, only American bookstores are complaining.
“It’s a naked man on the cover of a magazine, which is done all of the time without being covered up, so I definitely don’t think it merits this, but I understand what it is,” Parrott told The Huffington Post. “It’s not a coincidence that it’s only the giant U.S. chain stores that are asking us to do this…It’s only the American copies that are being censored.” READ MORE
