An uproar erupted earlier this year when Peggy Munson (lesbian author of Origami Striptease) was censored at the annual San Francisco Lambda Literary Award finalists' reading.  Her section was cut because organizers deemed a gender bending sex scene "straight."  Unfortunately, Munson's experience isn't an isolated occurrence—even in San Francisco.  Trans filmmaker Raymond Rea says his The Sweet New was rejected from this year's Frameline Film Festival after panelists reportedly declared it "not queer."
