Mom appalled at racy books in store for teens at Alderwood mall
LYNNWOOD -- Marci Milfs went to Urban Outfitters to find clothes for her teenage son.
She was surprised to find sexually charged books that she believes have no place in a clothing store for teens and young adults.
On one end of the spectrum was "Porn for Women," a photo book showing men doing housework. On the other was "Pornogami: A Guide to the Ancient Art of Paper-Folding for Adults," a guide for making anatomically correct artwork.
"When I saw it, I was shocked," Milfs said.
The books are displayed on tables in the Alderwood mall store with other socially and politically irreverent books, such as Stephen Colbert's "I Am America (And So Can You)."
Milfs was so appalled that she is preparing to file a complaint with the city of Lynnwood, and has already aired her frustrations to State Rep. Norma Smith, R-Clinton, and organizations including Morality in Media, Concerned Women of America and the American Family Association.
She also called Urban Outfitters' corporate office in Philadelphia.
"They said they are not sex books or pornography books, but that they are art books and their goals are to support artists," Milfs said.

It's not a store for teens. It's aimed at college kids. Sure, some items in the store may have some mature content, but if she doesn't like it....then don't patronize the store.

I suspect she won't be back. But unless they have a sign at the door saying "mature content" how would she know to avoid the store in the first place?

I agree that there's no way of her knowing in advance. But unless you start thumging through the books, there's nothing that extreme or horribly inappropriate there. It's not porn, there's no nudity. They are just books with humorous adult topics.
If she is that conservative, she should keep her kid out of the mall altogether with the way that young people dress in public these days.

Is the editor of that newspaper trying out for a job at The Onion?
