Oh the humanity!

I caught my mom reading my old star wars books when I was back home this weekend. She says she likes "The Courtship of Princess Leia" and thinks the X-Wing books sucked.
For some reason, having my mom reading Star Wars books makes me feel guiltier than if she found my porn collection.

Your mom was surprisingly accurate in her assessment, although I expect that would be fairly surprising to see that she had been reading your SW books for some time.

Heh, my mom has read every single one of my SW books too except the NJO series which isnt in Finnish. But she said she liked the Thrawn trilogy very much and the character of Thrawn.

My mom wants me to stop reading SW all together. She thinks it makes me childish.

What's the downside to that? It keeps you sane.

My Mom wants me to stop too. My response is a more polite version of fuck off you little cocksucking cunt.

Well, I told her about something I told a fundie in SLAM and she freaked. Bad thinking on my part. The reason I haven't returned though was tht we moved again. I hate Texas.

My parents don't have any problems with my interest in sci-fi and fantasy. They might not share my literary tastes, but they tolerate my preferences.

My parents tried once to tell me to stop comign here...I told them to blow off, well, I told them a little more politely than that. And ever since I have been telling them about threads that I find here and they have been very interested in it.

What? Does she want you to read
War And Peace or something? She should be happy you can string 2 sentences together. Hell *Laughs because of the
Drilling to Hell thread* you could be out doing drugs and "clubbing", she should be happy that you read for your own enjoyment.

Why deny it? This site
is dangerous
Mind you, that doesn't mean you should not return. Many things in life are dangerous. Hell, even sex is dangerous.

Cultural snobbery. The advance trailers for SW were loudly booed by one artsy-fartsy crowd back in 1977, causing Lucas to have yet another crisis of confidence and think that the film would be a box-office disaster. Of course, the artsy-fartsies did not represent the majority.
What novels does she think you
should be reading? And how does she present evidence to show that they are better for your mental and psychological development?

I don't generally read SW novels because a very large portion of them are not very good, but I wouldn't say they're 'below' anyone.
