on the writers. Historically, women have not been
treated as equals. One cannot help but observe
that in the specific area of family life a
widespread social and cultural tradition has
considered women's role...

clearheaded about these matters are planting the
very trees that obscure our view of the forest, "
says Dorothy Briley. According to Briley, a vast
amount more is needed than simply vulgar language
and suggestive material to censor a novel. But
this is the very reason why J. D. Salinger's The
Catcher in the Rye is frequently being banned from
high schools. ...
