Libraries reflect nation’s sexual fixation

MI Live has a very interesting Editorial on the porn in libraries problem, and he\’s not blaming the libraries, or the ALA.

\”I have seen the enemy and he is us. Our nation has become extremely sexualized so there is no reason that shouldn\’t be reflected in our culture. Libraries and museums are the storehouses of a lot of our culture.\”

\”I have seen the enemy and he is us. Our nation has become extremely sexualized so there is no reason that shouldn\’t be reflected in our culture. Libraries and museums are the storehouses of a lot of our culture.\”At the risk of sounding like an old codger, I must tell you that when I was a boy and my interest in sex intensified, the closest I ever got to a sexual image was the beautiful Blondie of \”Blondie and Dagwood\” and some rather harmless pictures and drawings from Esquire Magazine that I managed to squirrel away.


I kept my pictures hidden in a box that I put in a hole in the wall of my bedroom which lay behind a piece of removable molding. I would take these pictures out on occasion and look them over when a lusty mood struck me.


Today, the pictures in the forbidden box hidden so well from my mother, pale in comparison to the images I see on television or in the fashion sections of the New York Times. They pale by comparison even to the images found in magazines for teen-age girls.
