Talk:Show Me!

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

"It contains copious nude photographs, including children as young as ten touching the naked bodies of other people"

Although it doesn't state it, this statement implies something close to child porn. At the same time the Amazon review states that the photos in the book portray adults and children engaging in normal sensual and sexual behavior *appropriate to each age*. This needs to be correctly stated; the ambiguity is dangerous and wrong. Mozzerati 12:06, 2004 Oct 31 (UTC)

In Bibliographic details a link to 1. 1974: Zeig mal. Ein Bilderbuch für Kinder und Eltern Foreword by Helmut Kentler. Wuppertal is missing and 2. 1975: Show Me!: A Picture Book of Sex for Children and Parents St. Martin's Press. ISBN 0-312-72275-3 is a wrong ISBN

[edit] POV

The article, especially the reviews section, needs more balance. Right now the article seems to exist to mount a defense of the book. The 1975 reception was definitely more heated than one slightly negative review and even if there are sexologists today who have a, shall we say, enlightened view of the material, that needs to be shown in context so we know if this is a majority or minority view.

I know that a number of libraries had individual local controversies about adding the book to their holdings, and this would be helpful material as well. --Dhartung | Talk 11:33, 7 December 2007 (UTC)
