“Get a grip!” screams the guy who up and down the thread is wailing about his favorite child sex scene. Jeez, man, you think maybe you need a little less internet and possibly someone to talk to?
Yeah, I like the book. It has nothing to do with the sex scene. You can’t seem to take the work as a whole and only focus on a single part. There’s lots of weird shit out there, no sweat off my back. I just think it’s weird everyone’s jumping on him for old news that isn’t related. I think it’s weird King is defending this administration in any way, but this isn’t the angle of attack I’m willing to accept.
Lol I like the book, too. But I’m not out here dying on the hill of an 11-year-old sex train and honestly, it’s a very obvious thing to point to and say, “Oh, yep, shoulda known.” Because I read It as a child too and I wasn’t too bothered by that scene when I was 10, but I have no interest in revisiting that scene as an adult. Not my thing.
I frankly wonder why a grown man put so much detail into writing about several adolescent penises and how each felt to a little girl. Yes, there was symbolism, but it A) probably could have been symbolized through a different act and B) didn’t require the amount of time, pages, and description the grown man writing it gave it. This is a crazy, batshit hill to die on.
