So, by law in Hungary books with any #LGBTQ content have to be sold with the warning "Non-traditional content!"

On top of being sinister, his system is also:

1. Ironically useful, because Hungarian bookshops didn't have queer sections before, so the label actually makes queer content a lot easier to find

2. Low key surreal when the label is put on folktales, Greek mythology, or biographies like Goodnight Stories for Rebel Girls...

3. Useless and dumb

I love the idea of accidentally starting a cult following for "non traditional content". Maybe a TV series of the same name. A jazz band. Definitely a Mastodon server as well :)

@ewen both my mythology book and one of my folktale collections got hit with it. Ironically the folktale book is titled "Traditional folktales about non-traditional families" 😆

I hope it accidentally leads to a tonne more book sales. 🤍 Hard enough getting a book onto shelves on a good day without all this malarkey.

@TarkabarkaHolgy @ewen Given the title & subject, slapping a "NON-TRADITIONAL CONTENT" sticker on the book seems almost like an endorsement.

@ewen @TarkabarkaHolgy I search but I couldn't find your book. Where can I buy it?
