Wow. I'm talking about an author who wrote tales for children and you have nothing better to do than to connect these stories with things of sexual nature...

I simply said that I never heard of Beatrix Potter before. Neither my parents or perhaps also my grand-parents. I don't know how popular it is in Germany. Not everyone knows every book. When I was a child I read Grimm's fairy tales and these are also classics...
