The Scottsdale Public Library contains a book featuring a group of Catholic nun-mocking transvestites, according to a NE Valley Times review of Arizona public libraries.
The book, "This Day in June," was written by Gayle E. Pitman and illustrated by Kristyna Litten. It was published by Magination Press.
"In a wildly whimsical, validating, and exuberant reflection of the LGBTQ+ community, 'This Day In June' welcomes readers to experience a pride celebration and share in a day when we are all united," says the book's description on Amazon. "Also included is a Note to Parents and Other Caregivers with information on how to talk to children about sexual orientation and gender identity in age-appropriate ways as well as a Reading Guide chock-full of facts about LGBTQ+ history and culture."
On pages ten and 11, the book features a phot of the “Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence,” which is a group of transvestites who masquerade as Catholic nuns and mock Catholic rites and ceremonies.
The group of transvestites made national headlines recently with the Los Angeles Dodgers honored the group in a ceremony on June 16.
Golden State Today reported, “The Dodgers announced Monday they will host the so-called "Sisters of Perpetual Indulgence," who "have agreed to receive the gratitude" of the team organization during its home game versus the San Francisco Giants on June 16.”
In her book profiling the transvestite group, titled "Queer Nuns", author Melissa Wilcox described its members as "a congregation blessed by a dildo dipped in poppers," or drugs that produce chemical vapors inhaled by homosexuals for their "mind-altering effects" and that "cause a euphoria that can reduce inhibitions, increase sexual drive, and intensify the sensations of orgasm," according to the National Institutes of Health.
Wilcox also described "yogurt-filled chalices offered at a funeral to represent the intake of semen" and a “Condom Savior Mass” where "participants vow to use protection."
The Scottsdale Public Library website lists the book as being a "youth picture book" available at the Civic Center branch, located at 3839 N. Drinkwater Blvd. Erin Jones is the manager of the Civic Center branch.
Any member of the Scottsdale Public Library is able to view, place on hold, and have "This Day in June" sent to his or her local library branch location.
