Thanks for the ping.

“So I agree with canedawg in the public sphere and not necessarily in the private sphere.”

Agreed, as i was looking at the issue from a macro or public perspective.

I am also looking at it from a writer’s POV, and understand the challenges of creating plot, character, theme, dialogue, etc.

As a private matter, I think people may restrict the reading list of their minor children as they personally feel is in their child’s best interests. You certainly would prohibit reading pornongraphy, although it may be legal to publish it. Censoring social messages is more of a grey area.
