00:10:33.720this book has themes of oppression and incest on pages 129 and 148 i'm gonna say some pages because um i find it very difficult
00:10:47.720difficult to quote some of these some of these pages in this book the author talks about the breasts of the little girls and he he says on page 31 he could not
00:10:59.720he could have been an active homosexual but lacked the courage bestality did not occur to him and sodomy was quite out of the question for he did not experience sustained erections
00:11:11.720and could not endure the thought of someone else's besides the one thing that disgust him more than entering and caressing a woman was caressing and being caressed by a man
00:11:21.720pages 65 66 101 and 115 describes the sexual act in detail
00:11:29.720and page 38 talks about three whores three pennies had bought her nine lovely orgasms
00:11:37.720it is no wonder this book was banned you get a glimpse of how disgusting it is

00:12:19.720being a bitch do you want our children and our grandchildren to digest this type of language and imagery

00:12:48.200sexual acts those that are of pornography content please read section 163 and section 152 of the criminal code in reference to trial child pornography
00:13:05.200the book called it's perfectly normal which was banned in some schools in north america
00:13:11.200it was banned because it's uh animated slash cartoon pornography and um
00:13:21.200i i just asked that you would remove any books that caused our kids to question whether they are in the wrong
