Youth Literature is Filled with Scrotums

Or so it seems.

Apparently, some recent book aimed at youths started with a sentence that contained the word "scrotum", this enraged a number of school librarians so much that they pledged to hide the book from the eyes of children (see also the recent Hoohah hoohah).

If the author had just waited just a bit longer to use the word, or so the above linked to list suggests, the only outraged librarians would be those who could be bothered read more than the first page of their books.

To sum up: "[Y]ou won’t find men’s genitalia in quality literature."
