Challenge to Sex Censors is a book written by Theodore Schroeder that tackles the issue of censorship of sexual content in literature and other forms of media. The author argues that censorship of sexual expression is a violation of free speech and that it is often used to perpetuate outdated moral codes and limit individual freedom. The book provides a historical overview of censorship laws and practices in the United States and Europe, and examines the arguments used by proponents of censorship. Schroeder also offers a critique of the psychological and social effects of censorship, arguing that it can lead to repression, guilt, and shame. The book is a call to action for those who believe in free expression and the importance of sexual freedom. It is a thought-provoking and controversial work that challenges readers to consider the implications of censorship and the importance of protecting individual liberties.1938. Obscenity is no more true than witchcraft, and has no more objective existence. Obscenity exists only in the accusing mind, never in that which is accused.
