Let's see - some of my favorites
- LOTR - (described as racist in another thread, certainly sexist)
- Belgariad (author was a convicted child abuser)

Tolkien being a racist is BS. He wasn't racist.
The rest is true.
Forest Ackerman, Isaac Asimov, Arthur C. Clarke, Ed Bradley, and Marion Zimmer Bradley are but some of the awful people who are involved in SFF.

But to get back on topic, one thing that works is if I've read a book by an author and enjoyed it. If another book comes out with some hard no in the description, it might get read anyway.
