Yes, but did the SCHOOL give it to you? I had ONE magazine and a copy of some novel my dad kept tucked waaaay under the bed: Fannie Hill—really good in fact. I knew I was damned but I wasn't gonna stop.

The school library had it. That's different from forcing pupils to read it, or even recommending it to them. The kids had to ask for it.

Fannie Hill? With my copy, all the pages were stuck together.

No, sorry, I only responded to your first sentence. The school didn't give the LGBT book to kids, only had it in stock.
