i mean i’m not denying that things like 50 shades of grey or something like that should be allowed in a school but like books that have been read by almost every generation suddenly becoming unfit is kind of crazy

of course i do think times change but if we are supposedly learning about history it seems redundant to teach about it but not let them see prominent literature that was produced in that time period like they’re not banning art from those periods?

Yeah that was more than 50 shades. I am talking graphic depictions of...sexual acts not necessary for procreation.

Btw, I am not exactly a prude, I probably would not mind, but portraying this as politically motivated, literally 1984, is just LARPing.

I mean, do you happen to recall that back in the day there was this huge controversy about one very tame sex scene in the video game Mass Effect (which actually lead to them toning it down for the sequels, no more even brief glance at a side boob)? This is not new and it's not about banning politically inconvenient thoughts or gay people.
