While I agree with the general intent of the article, I would be against any kind of goverment intervention on what kind of material is available to read for anyone.

My teenage girl is free to read what she wants. I am confident she would not choose to read that type of crap. If she were reading it I am sure me and her mother would talk to her and let her make an informed choice.

It is a parents job to instill the values into their children that let the children choose what is good or bad to read.

One word: Parenting.

That's all that's needed.

I got a bit of a chuckle at Sir Bob's daughters' names. Pixie, Peaches, and Fifi Trixibelle. Them Brits sure is a weird bunch, ain't they?

That's some lewd and disgusting stuff Shiz.

As questionable as it may seem, young boys and girls alike, need all the information they can get to make their own moral and social decission.

I agree with Warpig, however a "warning label" may be appropriate.
