Amazon Won't Let Me Use the Word BreastFeed as a Tag For My Book

<p>I've been having an odd problem with <a href=" http://www.amazon.com/Mama-Knows-Breast-Beginners-Breastfeeding/dp/1594741654/ref=dp_return_2/105-0150060-1758847?ie=UTF8&n=283155&s=books">A mazon</a> lately. The <a href=" http://www.amazon.com/Mama-Knows-Breast-Beginners-Breastfeeding/dp/1594741654/ref=dp_return_2/105-0150060-1758847?ie=UTF8&n=283155&s=books">p age where my book Mama Knows Breast</a> is sold has a space where you can create "tags" for the book. These words help people find books that they might find useful.</p>

<p>I was able to create a whole series of tags related to my book. Words like "nursing," "lactation," "baby gift" worked. But there are certain tags Amazon simply won't let me create. I can't create a tag that says "breast feeding" or "breastfeeding" or "breast-feeding." Other variations that won't work: breastfed, breast fed, breast-fed, breast feed, breastfeed or breast-feed. You get the idea. Even simply, "breast" won't work. <a href=" http://www.booksonboobs.com/">Elisabeth Squires,</a> author of the new book <a href=" http://www.amazon.com/bOObs-Guide-Girls-Elisabeth-Squires/dp/158005207X/ref=pd_bbs_sr_1/105-0150060-1758847?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1193945 606&sr=8-1">"bOObs: A Guide to Your Girls"</a> told me Amazon won't let her use the tag "boob."</p>

<p>I imagine this is some sort of super duper anti-porn spam filter at work here. But it's quite silly given the subject matter of the book. I've tried to contact Amazon customer service through the website a few times and haven't gotten a response.</p>

<p>Does anyone have any suggestions? How can we get Amazon to wake up and smell the coffee?</p>
