| Some libraries have an adult section, but most probably don't. What do you think, would you be for or against libraries carrying blatantly explicit/pornographic magazines and other reading materials? | |

| I presume you mean that it would be available for check out? Otherwise a big  Regardless, they wouldn't have most of it for long because it would be stolen. Whether it should or shouldn't, it won't. | |

| No.
No, no, no, no, no.
I just don't trust sleazy American men to not start wacking off in the stacks. | |

| Well, as a pornographer who has some of his own stuff at the research library of the Kinsey Institute, I would say yes, if a progressive library wanted to have an adult section, either for research or amusement.
Like some of my writings that are in the Florida Authors, reference section of Miami-Dade County Public Library (no porn but my limited edition book Nude Attitude - which has nude art) it would best be for in-house use and not for checkout.
Pornography can be many things from sleazy fuck pics to art (or both). I think it has a place in the library. | |

I just don't trust sleazy American men to not start wacking off in the stacks. Men will do that anywhere. When I worked at JCPenney, we would find "sticky" women's bathing suits in the fitting rooms. Once the man was done his business, it was just left there! lol I see collector's porn mags come thru the post office all the time. I dont see why it shouldnt be allowed in a library, especially if it is documenting the social acceptance of sex and the history of sex/porn | |
