Anne Frank's 'dirty jokes' found in hidden diary pages
Two new pages from Anne Frank's diary have been published, containing a handful of dirty jokes and her thoughts on sex. The young Jewish teen's diary, written in hiding from the Nazis, became world-famous when published after her death and at the end of the war.
The hidden pages had been covered with gummed brown paper - apparently to hide her risqué writing from her family. New imaging techniques have finally allowed researchers to read them.
The entries were written on 28 September 1942, not long after the 13-year-old Anne went into hiding. "I'll use this spoiled page to write down 'dirty' jokes", she wrote on a page with a handful of crossed-out phrases - and jotted down four dirty jokes she knew. She added a few dozen lines about sex education, imagining she has to give "the talk" to someone else, and mentioning prostitutes - who she wrote elsewhere that her father had told her about.

Lolita bait? Anne Frank is almost 89 years old and still spilling secrets. Kind of like how you're a ~2,300-year-old dead man who just won't shut the fuck up.

Takyon! Surely you are not suggesting that I go sexual, are you?

It may well be your only chance to have your submission published.
Careful with the semantics of "submission", though, if you decide to go sexual. but decide to stick to the "alt" particle.
