Here is a quote:

Many readers are indeed turned off by the implicit marketing message. “It’s sort of like, admit it ladies, it’s all a ruse, this professional thing. The prince and the ring are really out there,” says one. That underlying sexism in packaging still grates . .

This article grates! It is like Science Fiction - we know it isn't real, but it is fun to read anyway. I read the tax code and cases all day long - I resent that anyone thinks they can look down on me because of what I read on the train. I admit, I read a lot more of this now that I have an ereader. The covers are just crazy! I find it difficult to go to sleep reading anything heavy - but I fall right off when I am reading a romance. Doesn't tax my brain in the least. Pure fluff. And my husband has benefited from some of the more explicit parts (can I get banned for this?)
