Please note how the media report does not address the most relevant point, i.e. whether/how graphic sex is depicted in the book.

Is it allusions to sexual activity for the imagination or Deep Throat?

It has illustrated oral sex among other things. They don't post it because the news site would have to blur it out....and if they did that it would make the point that book doesn't belong in school.

Definitely not Deep Throat. It's barely the glans.

I actually read this book (it's a graphic novel) about a month ago. A neighbor said it helped her understand the queer psychology. I read it in one sitting (not because it is that well written, but because it goes quick and is repetitive so parts can be skimmed).

It's pretty graphic. At one point, the girl fingers herself and then tastes it. In another, a girl wears a strap-on while another sucks on the dildo.

That said, the point of the book is not to titillate but to explain the author's sexual confusion and attempts at satisfaction (she ends up identifying as asexual).

For high school, I think reasonable people can disagree on its appropriateness. My vote would be to allow it in the school but it could only be checked out or read with parental approval. I would not allow it in middle schools or elementary schools. My neighbor, who is a very liberal suburban woman, said she would not allow it in middle schools either. Her daughter read it as a freshman in college this year.

It is a dude doing it to a fake one on a girl who thinks she is a guy. Be careful what you wish for.

I think it was a woman doing oral to another girl wearing a dildo.

I will yield to the person who read the book.

There's a Hummer thread on the aOTF. I think yours will answer like mine did. I think it was the second post in the thread to save you scrolling time.

You are nothing if not cosmopolitan.

Well, when you say it like that it doesn't sound as cool.

So meta.
