It just occurred to me: you're fully lacking in self-awareness and no longer have any idea how absurd you really sound. Maybe this will help provide some perspective on why parents think that certain books don't belong in a school library, though I doubt it.

How explicit were these books—and others at the center of the nationwide "book banning" controversy? Put yourself on the review committee and you be the judge. Here are three of the books Forsyth reviewed, with relevant excerpts.

SnowAngel: so: spit or swallow? [/] zoegirl: i swallowed, but i don't think i'm going to next time. i'll just tell him very politely so he's not offended.

[/] zoegirl: I don't *want* a blow job [/] SnowAngel: you know what i mean [/] zoegirl: doug tried to go down on me (geez, that sounds dorky), but I was like '"no no no no no. that's ok."
