[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Why do people here keep referring to “book bans” when what has happened is that a book is age-limited. Is this some political styling to score points against your adversaries or do you sincerely not know what the word “ban” means? [/quote]

Precisely this.  No books have been banned.  They are placed only in age-appropriate settings.  Huge difference.  [/quote]

So younger kids are banned from reading them?[/quote]

Don't you worry, your kids will have all the lewd, pornographic books they can get their hands on once they reach high school.  Maybe even middle school.  Or, you know, feel free to buy them yourself and have a really wholesome story hour with your own kids.  Knock yourself out.[/quote]

LOL that you think the books being pulled from schools are "pornographic."  I mean yes, the Bible does have some pretty sexualized stuff in it for sure.

Did you keep your kids from PG movies until they were 18?[/quote]

If you think Gender Queer, Lawn Boy, This Book is Gay, etc. are the equivalent of PG, then we have nothing further to discuss.  [/quote]

What is wrong with This Book is Gay?  Have you ever read it??[/quote]

Educate yourself.

It sounds like a book about how sex works except it specifically talks about how gay sex works. So?[/quote]

Feel free to buy this book for your own kid.  Or get it from the public library for your own kid.  [/quote]

You don't get it. If libraries have books about how heterosexual sex happens - One was given out in my fifth grade sex ed class 30 years ago which talked about that hetero sex, masturbation, and more - why can't a book talk about how gay sex works? [/quote]

Because gay sex is icky & makes Baby Jesus cry. Married, procreative missionary sex with the lights out is all part of God’s plan so long as no one enjoys it too much. [/quote]
