[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]Look, find the pictures. Decide for yourself. But its one minor, literally on his knees, in front of another, with the dick in his mouth. And its not just one frame. It's multiple. From different angle.[/quote]

NP.

1. There isn't a minor.  The main character is 25 when the scene in question takes place.

2. There isn't a penis, because...both the main character and partner are both born genetically female.

The next few pages the main character is still struggling with sexuality, and requests to stop dating while s/he figures it out.

Why do I add the detail?  Because again, you did not read the book, and it's not porn.  It's self discovery for a young adult. Not a child. The first part of the book deals with mensuration, bras, and deodorant, which would be age appropriate for high school.  The second half is more college age material. [/quote]

Sure.  But you do realize these books are in libraries that a 12yo can access.

Go ahead and put this on the college syllabus.  Nobody here is saying the book should be banned.  Just that it shouldn't be available to MS kids.

And yes, you are correct, its not a minor.  But I would argue with point 2.  For the purposes of the debate "is this pornographic" there's very little difference between a real penis and a dildo attached to a strap-on used for oral sex.  It doesnt make it any less pornographic[/quote]

I thought it was in high school libraries only.

It definitely does [b]not [/b]meet the definition of porn.[/quote]
