Available from Amazon:
The Rape of the A.P.E. has nothing to do with rape. It's a humorous look at the "sexual revolution." I read it years ago. I was put off by the title, but read it because I liked Allan Sherman. "A.P.E." in this instance stands for "American Puritan Ethic."
Could it be that there are different rules for books by third-party sellers or older established titles? |
as I said earlier when someone posted the print of the book about the "rape" of China, or somesuch, it is word usage. I do not believe that Amazon is targeting "rape"

You seem to forget, that while author can publish his work on Xyz site in Zyx format the reader who has the electronic device he paid money for are limited to only certain sites in this case Amazon.
It's like saying there was no censorship in Soviet Russia, because author could publish his work in some other country.
And your talk about how it is legal doesn't really change anything by the way, in some countries censorship is legal, but still called censorship.
