I say "Congratulations to the couple for standing up for their principles in the education of their daugher."
The exerpts you printed are some of the milder objections. Some of the more graphic and offensive are:
“..grins wickedly and drives a little ways out of town to (the) whore house. ....asks for a cabin.... he has risked getting into a lot of trouble.... nice girls at a whore house... How many taboos can we break here.... incest, group sex. lesbian sex, virgin sex- .....Virgin sex? .... Who’re you talking about? (They see their sister going into another cabin) with a guy that thinks condoms cause impotence.” [pg 124-125]
“He was nude... He was wore down with frustration, he said. I was cruel. ... didn’t understand that unlike a girl it was physically painful for guys not to have sex .... I thought you’d be hot-blooded being Spanish ... under all that Catholic bullshit, you’d be really free.... But Jesus, you’re worse than a fucking Puritan.” [pg 98-99]
“The man spoke up. Where ya’ going? ...Excuse me she asked politely... leaning into the car...Something caught her eye. She looked down and stared, aghast. The man had tied his (shirt) ..above his waist and was naked (below). String... looped around his penis... his big blunt-headed thing grew so that it filled and strained at the lasso it was caught in.... C’moninere... C’m’on he moaned. He cupped his hand over his thing.... a pained, urgent expression was deepening on his face. ...His arm pumped at something... and after much agitation he was still. The face relaxed....bowed his head as if in prayer.” [pg 157-158]
There are many other such excerpts like this sprinkled throughout the book, but this is enough to see why a parent who is raising a daughter to be sexually moral would not want her school promoting this kind of smut in the name of literature.
