Should books have a rating system like movies, TV or video grames have?

>>	Anonymous Mon Nov 25 02:05:54 2013 No.4303615 Sounds good to me. We can spend more tax dollars hiring government workers to sit around and read the couple hundred million of books published each year. Just so your young ass won't be shocked.

>implying the sexuality, violence, and maturity levels of books can be objectively rated
OP pls

Some of the dirtiest sex scenes are masked by being "dinner."

>>	Anonymous Mon Nov 25 02:25:54 2013 No.4303652 >>4303648 It sounds good until you realize that most of the books that get published every year are probably some Twilight tier nonsense.

>>	Anonymous Mon Nov 25 19:51:09 2013 No.4306162 A quick google shows 3 web sites dedicated to rate books. Surprisingly their ratings dn't resamble the ones mentioned by OP.

>>	Anonymous Mon Nov 25 19:58:09 2013 No.4306174 We've gotten by pretty good for the last few millennia without one.
