UPDATE:Thanks for your activism, the Montana library board voted 5-0 not to censor the gay book.
After several residents complained about the book "The Joy of Gay Sex" by Dr. Charles Silverstein and Felice Picano's, the library was considering whether to toss the book out. The number one selling guide for gay men offers advice on everything from coming out, to self esteem, and safe-sex.
Citizens against the book in the Helena Montana town object to the book on the basis that it is "immoral", there are also many people defending the book as a "resource, and on the basis that censorship is wrong".
The library board of directors made a decision to keep the book at its Oct. 21 meeting.
