I got in trouble for reading It in my sixth grade class. I also ended up putting the book down permanently without ever getting to the child orgy part because of the weird tangent where It killed and ate a gay man. That loving book sucked.

IT killing and eating a gay dude is literally in the first couple of chapters.

That's the first few chapters. The chapters generally alternate between the 50s and 80s. That's why the kiddie train choo choos into the station at the end of the novel. I may be remembering that wrong, but I don't recall any other gay people getting killed... Unless you count Patrick sociopath kid but his homosexual acts are pretty secondary to why a person would remember him.

It's the first chapter of the book. The gay kid gets picked on by teenagers in the 80's and it goes too far as he's pushed off the bridge and lands in the water and then gets killed by Pennywise. Then we jump into Georgie's death.

The funny part is his lie is easily disproved. Hell, Pennywise killing the gay dude is right at the beginning of the book, and serves a purpose. (Read Derry: The First Interlude, where Mike goes into it)

Weldon Pemberton posted:

they would have just thought "oh that SUPERMAN'S GAL PAL is a smart and well-read kid, it's good to see a young person reading" and gone about their day. If they even noticed at all.

Since this was posted others have shared teachers having concerns, but in my case I was known as an advanced reader so I'm sure it was this, people's ignorance of the book, and frankly I think most folks who have read IT probably try to put the scene right out of their minds because it's disturbing. IT chat also makes me realize I forgot a TON about that book. I also never read another King book after that one, so I must not had been impressed. Awkward, thought I was in the worst book thread for a minute.
