My comment about some truth was to specifically about:

  * It models unrealistic and possibly unhealthy notions about sexuality
  * It can be exploitive of its subjects (yes, sometimes empowering too)
That's kind of it. I don't think it should be banned at all.

I believe that "free speech" is critical to a well functioning society, but we need to recognize that it can have negative impacts. A key example is the right-wing Hate Industrial Complex: decades of right wing propaganda have conditioned tens of millions of Americans to consider their fellow citizens as non human.

I don't have an answer for how to address this, but you can't fix a problem until you recognize the problem and that it needs fixing.
