I’m not trying to keep it from the kids. i’m trying to keep it from everyone!

The Weld Library District out here in Colorado is deciding to keep It’s Perfectly Normal: Changing Bodies, Growing Up, Sex & Sexual Health on the shelf. According to this Greeley Tribune article, a picket of two may be forthcoming. Here are my favorite quotes from the article:

“They pick up a book like this and their sexual curiosity is awakened. Their passions are aroused,” McAllister said.

“The Rev. Ray Grant said the book – which broaches topics such as sexual abuse, sexually transmitted disease, homosexuality and abortion – is unsuitable for children and even most adults.”

“Children’s curiosity about sex should be satisfied only after marriage, and if they are afraid of sexually transmitted disease, “let them abstain,” Grant said.”

Luckily, the library board is holding thier ground.
