The book was supposed to teach children about tolerance, accepting difference, and how all kinds of lifestyles are equal.
In the late 1980s The New York School Board was slated to buy "Heather Has Two Mommies" and distribute it to every public elementary school. Naturally, the idea of a mandatory book about lesbian parents set off a shitstorm among parents and pundits.
Pair that book with another then under serious consideration: "Daddy's Roommate," about a boy with two absolutely fantastic male role-models in Daddy's room. Let's just say The Post had itself a field day.
The way to sell these books would have been to combine them into pornography. "Daddy's Roommate has Two Heathers." "Two MILFs have Daddy's Roommate, "Heather's Daddy has Two Mommies and an Orgy."
The possibilities are endless, if it weren't for a few blue-noses. I have a dream that someday gay-themed childrens books will escape San Francisco and fly off the shelves from coast to coast. Then the space will be free for bestiality

I miss the old cartons about Juan and Marisol and condoms. Remember those? She wants him to wear a condom and he shouts, "a condom?! What kind of a man do you think I am?"
Ah, good times.
Where were these? In the subway? I vaguely remember them. I wonder what "like taking a shower with a raincoat on" translates into Spanish. That, I believe, all men can relate to.
