The one I am most offended by is this one:

http://www.amazon.com/Hello-Cruel-World-Alternatives-Suicide/dp/1583227202

"Hello Cruel World: 101 Alternatives to Suicide for Teens, Freaks and Other Outlaws" by Kate Bornstein. Nothing erotic about it, except guilt by association - the author wrote another one called "The Gender Workbook". This is so insensitive it should cost Amazon some revenue. Do they really advocate suicide for some people?
