And a few added comments of my own to Jesse Wave’s Blog Post
Ms. Wave posts a couple of questions. Going by how she treats them, I suppose she thinks these are mere rhethoric questions no one needs answer. I beg to differ, Ms. Wave.

I've no idea. LOL. I was just quite a bit angry. Not about what she chooses to review, she can do what she wants in that respect. She also can prefer whatever it is she prefers reading. And I hope that blog finds a working solution for their problem.
But telling me what to write, that I'm disrespectful of readers and gay men for writing het sex into my LGBT stories, the totally offensive definitions of what is a man and what not, demanding I label for what I don't want to label, because that's also offensive, all that really got my goat there.
I like when an author writes warning but it's definitely needs to be done only for the triggers. The strange thing is, I think I've read only one m/m book with het sex in it.
Warning for triggers I do and they are okay. Warning for normal behaviour... not so much.I actually have yet to come across one, I think. Can't remember any on-page het sex in an m/m book so far. Gay fiction, yes. M/m no.
