> I would not bat an eye at this in a high school library, no. I checked out books that were substantially more adult in nature than this appears to be.

Maybe you wouldn't, but be honest with yourself - how many parents want their school to hold and keep pornographic material?

If you want to show your kids sexually graphic images, then sure, fine, have at it. You're complaining that you can't show these images to other people's kids, and you're complaining that those parents are a problem?

I think my adjacent comment addresses this adequately.

Then you tell your librarian that your child may not check this book out specifically. I seriously don’t understand the problem here. Maybe another child will appreciate a depiction of healthy communication in sexual interactions, because highschool teens are definitely having sex, but if you don’t want your child learning boundaries and healthy communication that’s ok too!

I'm not talking about showing anything to anyone. I said that I checked out books that were significantly more "adult" when I was an adolescent, and I appreciated the ability to do so.

We're also not talking about pornography. None of the material here fails the Miller test.
