Do you really want to be the person playing devils advocate with showing porn to children?

He asks a good question. Back before the internet it was pretty normal for some kid now and then to manage to swipe one of his dad’s issues of Playboy or Penthouse and share it with the other kids in their neighborhood.
So we have plenty of experience that says seeing the occasional sexually explicit photo or drawing doesn’t harm kids.

Can you give an example of sexually suggestive writing that you would classify as "porn"? "Explicit" is quite different to "suggestive".

Hmm, seems "porn" really does mean something different in the US...https://news.artnet.com/art-world/florida-western-civ-fired-...
