The Official Book Censorship Thread

I read a blog post by some moron stating that the sales for 50 Shades of Grey is proof that women are in denial that they want to be dominated, blah blah blah. (All that proves is that fools and their money soon part.)

There is some interesting and worthwhile discussion of censorship and 50 Shades of Grey here:

So, I wonder how many on this forum have read it? Or are willing to say. :devil:

I haven't read them but I'd have no problem admitting to if I did.

It doesn't seem to me there should be a problem, but there sure seems to be some fuss out there in the hinterlands. And more of the genre to come, no doubt.

Aaaah, the good old Streisand effect strikes again. And for a good cause, too.

Yes, the Streisand effect. Gotta love it.
