I got an evaluation from a publisher whom I paid for a formal evaluation. It was a very thorough one, so they earned their pay. But....she told me to change my male protagonist into a lesbian. 

Yeah. 

And to put in more cussing.  

My point is that that would kind of change the whole book and the arc of the main character, who is very dear to me now. I can't imagine him as something/someone else.
