I had posted earlier that I read almost anything except Romance. I am not disparaging those who do read Romance. I have never read it and in no way able or want to judge those who do read Romance. Maybe the reason I do not read it is because subconsciously I am afraid I would like it. 
Actually, I am pretty sure if I did read it I would find myself reading more Romance.

I find your statement interesting and is why I previously brought up the point about opening a conversation with the so called snob. It is what my mother told me I should do, since I should not fight. I have had conversations with church ladies, teachers and men that say romance is porn. I bought up to the church ladies that "judge not" rule. I even told the man leading my church class that trying to place all the blame on Delilah was wrong because in that society she really did not have any say in how she lived. I got some people to read The Warlock in Spite of Himself after telling me it was evil and changed some minds.
I even have gotten some men to pick up a romance and read or listen to one. Did I change everyone's perceptions. . . No. But, maybe I got them to be more tolerant, to step outside the box, or just shut up and enjoy something they did not think they would.
