I meant in children. We can disagree. Children are totally innocent and should play with what appeals to them.

Nonsense. Children are not totally innocent -- they all have impulses to inappropriate behavior of many kinds, and this is just one of those inappropriate areas the left is trying to make "off-limits." Because children will try anything, like sticking metal objects into electric sockets or putting their hand on a hot stove, that's why God gives them parents to guide them. While children's tendencies need not be punished or shamed, they can be distracted or given dispassionate negative feedback. As they begin to understand language, concepts of safe behavior and social harmony should be explained simply. Romancing sexual exoticism is a parent's foolishness.

“Children are totally innocent and should play with what appeals to them.”

We should try to stop children from getting their hearts set on something that can never be.

A little girl who wants to be an NFL nose guard should be informed, in a gentle and age-appropriate way, that this is not going to happen and, if it did, it would be a bad thing.

A little boy who wants to get pregnant, perhaps in an innocent desire to emulate his mother, should likewise be dissuaded.

Et cetera, et cetera, et cetera.
