Writer's Block: Forbidden Reading

Oct 20, 2008 00:20

Hello people!

Well, there's one book I didn't really want my parents to know too much about, and that's Wigfield. The front cover alone is bad enough (it shows a sign for a strip-club, lol), but one of the first interviews in the book is a stripper who reads her diary, where she describes sexual activities, including using dildos at a party, LOL.

I'm personally against banning or censoring any book, and luckily, my parents have been pretty good about letting me read whatever I want, even as a teenager ( ... )

I totally agree. Banning/censoring books is the most idiotic thing I've ever heard of.

I don't think I have a coming-of-age book. *shrugs* LOL, that is pretty cool. XD

Wow, really? That's kinda suckish. I think it's a cool idea (I've never read the books OR seen the movie, but I read what the books are about via an interview with the author in TIME mag). Though I can see why they wouldn't want you to read it, I guess.

LOL, that's pretty cool! I've got utterly strict assholes who ban books here, so if you try to read them, there's a freaking controversy that winds up on the mother-effing news.

OMF, Harry Potter is banned there?! That's ridiculous! God, I HATE stupid people that ban books. THEY'RE JUST FUCKING BOOKS. *headdesk*

Totally agree. Religious zealots=fucking fail. *shakes head* Totally completely agree. OMG that's so cool! :DDD

Yeah, that'd be awesome. I am for sure reading your book, lol.

HAHA, you sound like a commercial. ;] <333

Hahaha, yeah, definitely didn't even tell the parents I had checked out Wigfield. XP

Some of the weirdest/'worst' books I've read have come from my dad, who introduced me to Heinlein when I was twelve. There are some pretty interesting ideas in his novels ... I highly recommend Stranger in a Strange Land and The Moon is a Harsh Mistress. Those books got me right comfy with being the bisexual polyamourist that I am today :-D Probably not something most parents want to know their kids are reading (though the should!).

And there's usually a sex scene or two in the books my mom and I share ... something we started when I was about fifteenish. There was one I remember that was pretty graphic. We didn't mention it :-P

LOL! XD Cool! I'll look into 'em, thanks for the recs!

WHOOT! HOLY MOO, really?! That's pretty cool, dude. HAHA. Nice.
