I totally forgot about the gay sex. Hallucinating Foulcault by Patricia Duncker, Brideshead Revisited by Evelyn Waugh (though it is implied and not graphic at all.)

This is an astonishing list. You have The Catchtrap by Marion Zimmer Bradley on here twice, though. Oh, and you might add "incest" to Teleny, Oscar Wilde, as well. It's part of a dream, but it's highly explicit.

Are you taking more entries still?

First Love, Last Rites by Ian McEwan: underage sex (young teen boy raping his ten-year-old sister), pedophilia
In Between the Sheets by Ian McEwan: bestiality, underage (lesbian) sex
The Gap Cycle by Stephen R. Donaldson: sexual abuse of a baby (I see this is listed already, but it just has rape)

(Reply) (Thread)

Les Miserables, by Victor Hugo: I believe Fantine is only 15 when she comes to Paris and becomes pregnant (before the father abandons them both), eventually turning to prostitution (with a few rape overtones) to support herself and Cosette.

I LOVE THIS LIST. Needless to say the book gland within me is secreting graciously. (That sounds so wrong. I apologise.) But this list is bewildering and I applaud you for taking on the task.

im completely forgot HP had implied incest.

way to go!

(Reply) (Thread)

Impressive list! I was going to say, don't forget the Bible...but oops, it's there; I must have missed it the first time.

Pretty much every offensive subject you can think of is in there somewhere. :)

Love this list!

Gentlemen and Players by Joanne Harris: underage sex
City of Bones by Cassandra Clare: incest

(Reply) (Thread)

Hmm, my primary fandom needs to go in here, since you're listing manga:

Trigun by Yasuhiro Nightow: prostitution (both female and male), implied sexual slave markets, almost-rape (that ended with the wanna-be rapist being literally sliced in half by the slave's future "master,") potentially slightly implied non-human nonconsensual twin incest.

(Reply) (Parent) (Thread)

This list is too much love for words. <3

The most ironic thing in here probably is Harry Potter canoncest. I totally forgot it exists!

(Reply) (Thread)

Probably because in the Black family, it's second cousins, and the Gaunt family are nowhere near sexy enough to write porn about. That I've seen. Of course, it's my opinion that Snape is nowhere near sexy enough to write porn about either, and...

Also, OP: Echoing the general chorus of love for this list, and adela_nightmoon's (and whoever else's) request for alphabetical ordering.

(Reply) (Parent) (Thread)

This so needs to be alphabetically ordered... it's too much!

Fantastic job...

The Pact by Jodi Picoult involves a semi-graphic account of child molestation.

This is awesome, seriously.

(Reply) (Thread)

Thousand Acres by Jane Smiley - incest
ttyl by Lauren Myracle - graphic sex talk involving underage girls

(Reply) (Parent) (Thread)

Fantastic list. I applaud you.

The Great And Secret Show, Clive Barker: Bestiality. And it's a long time since I read it, but I think implied underage sex too.

Does people having sex with aliens count as bestiality? Because that's a whole new swathe of material right there.

(Reply) (Thread)

you can actually put about at least half of the romantic literature of the 19th century and earlier into the list for sex with a minor, cause todays definition of a minor (especially in the US) kinda clashes with their definition - actually it also clashes with a lot of definitions of minors in Europe - which means you can add quite a lot of todays teen-novels and the like - cause statuary rape (sp?) is defined a lot different (child under 14/16 )

(Reply) (Thread)

Great Job! That was very enjoyable. (Did you consider adding to the numbers on fandom_counts?; http://community.livejournal.com/fandom_counts/profile )

(Reply) (Thread)

What really gets me, is that I think the most named illegal activity in the list? Incest. I haven't actually counted...

Also, a few more thoughts, did you think of posting with media other then books, cause, if you did? CSI. All of the them. Rape, murder, incest, pedophilia, and I'm pretty sure there was a episode in CSI/NCIS/L&O (one of those, if not all) with necrophilia. There are R rated rape scenes(flashbacks), children of father/daughter incest who is just(I think) 3? And is starting to get molested by her father/grandfatherwho is the same person....

Yeah. Law and Order. CSI. Watched by practically everyone.

WORD! And I totally forgot. "300" by Frank Miller. Um, implied rape of a, what... 12year old beautiful girl by mutated old guys. Book and Movie.

I'm proud of fandom. I've never seen so many people so united.

(Reply) (Thread)

Wow, this is great. I'm definitely meming this.

And you might want to add the short story Keepsakes and Treasures by Neil Gaiman - pedophilia, incest, rape, underage prostitution, and some sort of sexual enslaving
Snow Glass Apples, also by Neil Gaiman, has incest and some sort of necrophilia

(Reply) (Thread)

Btw, re: Harry Potter & the Order of the Phoenix, the incest is more than implied IF you've seen the official Black Family Tree (granted, it's not IN the book but it's in the film and readily available to any/all fans). Sirius Black's parents were second cousins. And considering the attitude about Purebloods in general, I'd say inbreeding/incest was pretty much prevalent through the entire series.

(sorry for being such a geek)

(Reply) (Thread)

Inbreeding, yes. Incest, depends on definition. I'd say Sirius's parents are in the blurry line between what's incest and what's not, because they're second cousins. Anything farther apart than that probably doesn't count as incest.

The Sweet Hereafter by Russell Banks. Incest, adultery, abuse.

(Reply) (Thread)

Er...Robin McKinley's book is called Deerskin, not Donkeyskin.

More novels:

Summer of My German Soldier by Bette Greene features child abuse and a twelve-year-old girl falling in love with an adult male.

To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee contains accusations of interracial rape, a lynching, and the attempted murder of a child.

Their Eyes Were Watching God by Zora Neale Hurston contains rape, wife-beating and killing in self-defense.

We All Fall Down by Robert Cormier turns on attempted rape and attempted murder.

Sex by Madonna features lesbianism, male homosexuality, sadomasochism, anilingus, and rape.

Pillars of the Earth by Ken Follett contains the rape of an underage girl while her brother watches.

Julie of the Wolves by Jean Craigshead George involves child abandonment, child marriage and attempted rape of a child bride.

The Dead Zone by Stephen King features a subplot involving a serial killer who rapes and murders a number of females, including a seven-year-old girl. The serial killer also suffered sexual abuse at the hands of his mother.

Deerskin is based on the fairy tale Donkeyskin, though.

*she says, catching up on things a week later*

Dunno if it's been mentioned, but "Prince of Tides" involves the rape of a young boy.

Also, what was the book taking place at a military school (thinly-disquised Citadel) about the cadets having underage sex?

(Reply) (Thread)

Lords of Discipline by Pat Conroy (He's a popular author around these parts ironically. He was friends with a former principalof the high school I attended.)

Also by Pat Conroy is The Great Santini and it's been ten years since I read it, but I recall there being rape.

Haven't seen this mentioned yet, but--

Wicked: The Life and Times of the Wicked Witch of the West, by Gregory Maguire - polyamorous relationship, group sex, and bestiality

...though I think it was a sentient Tiger, so I'm not sure if that would actually count. Also, I don't remember how old they all were when they went to that brothel, so they could have been underage. If anyone remembers and could clear this up, that would be super.

(Reply) (Thread)

They were not underage, actually...the college was a post-secondary school, so the closest we would come would be if a couple of the characters were 17. But it's never mentioned if they are. The assumption would probably be safer that they were all of age.

This is outstanding! Thank you so very much. This contributes not just to fandom, but to those of us who are currently writing fiction for publication, like myself.

There are so many giants of literature on this list, that the list can become a castle of intellectual defense for those of us who feel threatened by the possibility of censorship and harrassment from people such as WFI.
