Yes, I totally agree with you.

I read the trilogy and enjoyed the books. My take was much like yours and I must add, that with love and understanding even the most messed up can find happiness. In the last book of the trilogy, Anna and Christian found true happiness and were building a beautiful family together. The last scene brought tears to my eyes as a badly scared yet highly driven young man found that with love and understanding, he could overcome his past and be a terrific father and husband.

There was no pedophilia involved. The ignoramuses in the MSM who have called it “Mommy Porn” are way off base. In my opinion, it is quite simply, a love story.

HOWEVER, I find it absurd for a College to offer a class on this. Parents should be outraged.

I also read all three books. But I have to admit, I got tired of the repetition. I agree it was a love story.......however unbelievable it may be. They got married like after 3 weeks or so.

My husband read a few pages and was bored to tears and refused to read any more.

What surprised me was when I read that the hotels in Europe were replacing the King James Bible with 50 Shades of Grey.

It is absurd for a college to offer a class on this. How will this help someone get a job? Parents should be outraged and taxpayers should protest. I don’t want my tax money to support this garbage.

Yes I loved that it ended with a mom and dad married with children.
That won’t make the feminist teaching the stupid class happy since traditional marriage is oppression for many feminists.

Thank you for a reasonable reponse that is filled w/ fact from someone who ACTUALLY read the books! Love them or hate them, but I CAN’T stand when someone tries to be my nanny. I’m a grown up!

I agree about it being taught in college. Really!?
