AIBU to not let my daughter read 50 Shades of grey?

[Jennco]

To be fair she is very nearly 17. Whilst I havent read the book, so cannot be a fair judge of content, I am certain it isnt something an impressionable (very innocent) young girl to read? Apparently all of her friends have read it and she knows vaugely what its about.

So AIBU when she will probably be old enough to see the movie upon its release?

OMG Catsize! Inspired

Thank you AyMamita

I read it on a plane to Paris (have flown lots but never before alone and am quite a nervous flyer). It was suitably distracting/riveting in a weird way. We'd landed before I noticed. And I swear the Frenchman next to me was reading it over my shoulder... Was glad I'd paid only £1.28 on Kindle. As OPs have said, really badly written-in my view, up Mills and Boon with raunchier sex. Basically young girl sells self to rich man and becomes horribly fascinated by him . I suspect the film might actually be 'better' than the book (it could hardly be worse). Must admit some of the kinky sex was new to me but I've led a sheltered life...
My 27 year old very feminist daughter read (some of) it and was horrified at the message . My 24 year old said she couldn't be bothered with rubbish
Could be very useful way-in to talking about relationships with your DD

Let her read it, it's shit. Being in a sort of-bdsm sub/dom relationship with my long-term DP, it makes me cringe. I don't want to spoil it but it really made me quite upset hoe he wrote out a contract and made her sign it.
She didn't really want to do it - she was a virgin in the first book. I've been experiencing sub/dom sex since 17, it's fulfilling and amazing in a LTR.
It's each to their own though, a lot of people aren't into it.
I mean, yeah, I did enjoy the sex scenes but I wrote better (and more anatomically correct) smut at 14. She uses words like "his length" and "my love" for genitals.
it's cringeworthy.
If you get past that its alright.
It was originally twilight fanfiction before she changed the names - which were copied from the film Secretary (which if she wants to read a book about bdsm, she might want to watch that film as it is amazing!) - so tell her to read it as though it is twilight, she may find it better. or worse.

in the book she becomes disgustingly obsessed with him, he had a deep dark past and takes it out on Ana. He spoils her but gets angry if she breaks rules or talks back, that sort of thing. but spoils her to say sorry then does it again - he's a very abusive man.

Let her read it!

I read it with my sister.We are' mature'. (...it was a well meant gift...we were virgin child brides eons ago, with similar inexperienced husbands who we are still married to.)

A lot was over our heads,hideously repetitive and boring.Like a Mills and Boon,but from a parallel universe.

We burned it outside under the African sun, like two old giggling,crazed witches,poking at it with sticks!

It could not be passed on to anyone for a read or absolutely not be gifted to the church bazaar!

looking forward to her opinion of it op. Let us know what she thinks.

Let her read it -but it's hysterically awful.
