Wtf are you talking about, I have clear memories of my elementary school classmates pointing out things in anatomy books and talking about sex, are you really such a prude that you don’t think or even remember that you were interested in such things as a child?
an anatomy book is a educational guide and reference for understanding human biology. It’s a textbook, explicitly and primarily written for learning… that’s quite a large step away from a fantasy erotica novel… just because they’re both books with dicks in them does not mean they’re both appropriate for kids.
Intention matters. Unless you’re an idiot, I guess?
You cannot stop children from looking at the things/ finding the things that they want to, and trying to block access to those things is just censorship for the sake of making yourself feel better.
“even though you’re the parent and responsible for the wellbeing and education of your child, you’re not allowed to set any kind of restrictions or boundaries. You must let your child do whatever they want, consume whatever they want… because they want to, and they will try to do it anyways so just let them”

you’re kidding right?..

It’s a textbook, explicitly and primarily written for learning… that’s quite a large step away from a fantasy erotica novel… just because they’re both books with dicks in them does not mean they’re both appropriate for kids.

So your argument is
“even though you’re the parent and responsible for the wellbeing and education of your child, you’re not allowed to set any kind of restrictions or boundaries. You must let your child do whatever they want, consume whatever they want… because they want to, and they will try to do it anyways so just let them”
that’s your position? Just… don’t parent at all?
