I never read them but looks like those are bestsellers with good reviews. By calling them “smut” and calling for bans you’re not different than christian fundamentalists trying to ban Harry Potter and LOTR.
whatever man, whatfucking ever. You think that adult fantasy with explicit sex scenes written for adults is good for kids. Whatfuckingever man. Holy fuck, you lost the plot if you’re arguing for that. It’s not even on the same level as HarryPotter/LOTR.
Ey, why stop at erotic books. Just put porn on school computers. Do away with any internet controls. Put a shortcut on the school computer that goes to Pornhub, for education… don’t wanna censor anything. Afterall, Pornhub and Wikipedia are basically just places to learn things. Same sames.
How you fail to see that the line of thinking you have below doesn’t also extend to the books youre trying to censor (while only relying on things youve read instead of actual interactions) is insane to me.
The thing is, it’s just your opinion. You think those books are not for fit for high schoolers are say they should be banned for everyone. You’re forcing your morality and opinions on everyone else.
ohmyfuckinggod. REVERSE that line of thought. It’s YOUR opinion. YOU think it’s fit for kids. So YOU can give them to YOUR kids.
In a PUBLIC library, the PUBLIC (that’s the average person) decides on the morality and topics that are approrpiate for children. It’s the general average consensus. If you want to show them more YOU CAN, with YOUR KIDS. I’m not forcing you not to. The PUBLIC is saying “I dont’ think kids should read erotic fantasy” and I, LIKE MOST PARENTS, agree with that sentiment… I think the line should be drawn somewhere, and erotic explicit sex fantasy books is over that line, for me, and most people.
I get it, you had a traumatic controlling childhood and now you wanna rebel against the system with “I would never tell my kids no, I’ll let them do anything they want”. But not everyone wants to raise their kids in the same fuckedup way as you.
I’m saying each parent and kid above certain age should be free to decide. You want to decide for them. Even if it’s majorities consensus it’s still one group of people limiting the rights of other group.
The point of public library is to offer access to books for free. By banning those books from library and saying “parents can show them to their kids if they want to” you’re basically saying that parent can show kids those books if they can afford and find them. Next you will decide that if majority decides those books should not be sold in local bookstores and if parents want to they can look for them elsewhere.
The books were already there. It’s not people democratically deciding how to spend public money. It’s zealots policing what other people should and should not like.
That’s the certain age we, as a public society, have decided that they are free to decide for themselves about what’s appropriate for them. Because they are adults. Fullstop.
You want to argue lowering the age where a child is considered an adult?.. is that where you want to go? I mean, you have been arguing in favor of showing porn to kids… so, maybe it is. Maybe it’s in your interest that kids are considered “mature” at a younger age.
It’s all just your opinions. It’s your opinion it’s porn, it’s your opinions 16yo should have have access to it. You’re calling something porn and then attacking people for showing it to kids. You’re exactly like christian zealots. I’m done talking to you.
you’re the one arguing to show kids explicit sex scenes man. Dunno why you think I’m the weird one here. I’ve been trying to tell you to fuckoff for awhile now. Thankyou for finally doing so.

So you’re ok with books that describe killing and gore but sex is off the table?
no, where did I ever say that? You’re just making up some le reddit level gotcha.
No you said you’re ok with LOTR, which describes killing and gore, but you’re not ok with sex. So yes you did say that.
are you trying to imply that because LOTR has violence, that it is a book primarily about killing and gore? What in the false equivalency bs is this?
LOTR also Hobbits smoking pipeweed. Is it also a book primarily about drug use and addiction? Is Harry Potter a sports series because quidditch?

the age is 18.
That’s the certain age we, as a public society, have decided that they are free to decide for themselves about what’s appropriate for them. Because they are adults. Fullstop.
