Mom appalled at racy books in store for teens at Alderwood mallYeeesss, 'adult books' showing men doing housework, (probably found in the fiction section), and 'anatomically correct' origami.
LYNNWOOD -- Marci Milfs went to Urban Outfitters to find clothes for her teenage son.
She was surprised to find sexually charged books that she believes have no place in a clothing store for teens and young adults.
On one end of the spectrum was "Porn for Women," a photo book showing men doing housework. On the other was "Pornogami: A Guide to the Ancient Art of Paper-Folding for Adults," a guide for making anatomically correct artwork.
[...]
Milfs was so appalled that she is preparing to file a complaint with the city of Lynnwood, and has already aired her frustrations to State Rep. Norma Smith, R-Clinton, and organizations including Morality in Media, Concerned Women of America and the American Family Association.
[...]
Milfs doesn't believe the books should be seen by children.
"It's not freedom of speech," she said. "It's selling adult books to teenagers."
Wow, anatomically correct origami ... just think, a teenager could suffer la petit mort by a thousand paper cuts!
And yes, I did wonder if this article was, ahem, pulling my leg. I mean, Marci Milfs!? The last time I saw a name like that it was on the marquee of the Pink Pussycat theatre. But I called the reporter, who was very gracious, and he said he'd checked her out, (no pun intended), and his editor had checked her and her story out.
OK, enough of this frivolity, now back to our regularly scheduled programming.
