Why are some people convinced that is so? I don't know. It may have something to do with the highfalutin literary establishment though. The highfalutin literary establishment is quite fond of disparaging books that aren't literary enough. And they coincide with the establishment of irrational ebook haters.
I see

It can't simply be called erotic, graphic, explicit or even just p0rn because otherwise people might believe women who are not mothers or even the occasional man 'gasp' might be reading these books and we can't have that!
