The problem is that you have you walk on egg shells for anything that could come even remotely close to children, and really a lot of the American (even though they may like to think otherwise) a not-insignificant portion of the European market will give absolutely credence to anything that doesn't explicitly ban sexual things.

And sure, in these examples they backtracked, but only because these created massive negative buzzes, but what about all the other cases that didn't trend on Twitter or made the frontpage news?
