I think there should be a big sticker on the front of the book that reads "this book contains the word scrotum" ...I'm joking
I always find that the opinion on issues like this tend to be split based on a lot of individual preferences. For example teaching kids proper body part terms is a pretty popular thing to do nowadays. Women generally feel more strongly about these sort of issues because we're more emotional creatures and stereotypically we worry more. I can definitely see the point in saying "if you knew there might be backlash, why would you even go there"
