Alright, call me a stupid asshole, but in the ending, when Ryan Dean said he loved Joey, did he mean it in a platonic or a romantic way?

Why do movies get R ratings for using the "F-bomb" but write a book wabout teenagers and call it YA or teen book, fill it with crude language and it's perfectly accepted and even lauded?

If a movie is R-Rated for using more than one f-word, than why is a book filled with over 100 f-words marketed as a young adult novel?

Well, I think it's because movies are more out there, if that makes sense. Winger is a young adult novel, and the language is nothing new to teenagers of that age, so it's basically the author trying to make the novel as realistic as possible. Also maybe it's because in movies, they're said out loud? I've noticed that most YA adaptations take out most of the f-bombs, so I guess it's just based on the fact that it's a book for teenagers.(less)

I feel like every YA book never talks about some things talked about in this book, even if it's just the little things (such as JP being mad at Ryan Dean after they fight, not immediately reverting back into BFF's again like which is what would've happened in most books.)(less)
