Controversial Passage 3, Explanation, and Citation


“We got into his bed and fell asleep for an hour and when we woke up Ralph was hard again. This time Michael made it last much, much longer and I got so carried away I grabbed his backside with both hands, trying to push him deeper and deeper into me--and I spread my legs as far apart as I could--and I raised my hips off the bed--and I moved with him, again and again and again--and at last, I came. I came right before Michael and as I did I made noises, just like my mother. Michael did too. While he was still on top of me, catching his breath, I started laughing. "I came ...” I told him. "I actually came." "I know," he said, "I felt it ... is that what's so funny?"

This passage could be controversial due to it description of the sex between Kath and Michael. It talks about Michael’s penis and what happened when they got “carried away”. Parents don’t want their children reading about sex and mainly not this detailed.  They don’t want their children and young adults knowing the details about sex and what happens while having sex until their ready to talk to them about it themselves.
