There are still places in this country where fornication is illegal;
your approach would make erotica illegal there?

The only acceptable restraint on speech is none.  If you can ban any
idea, no matter how repugnant, then you can ban any other idea as well.

It is also, of course, trivial to produce pornography that explicitly
states that it is not meant to promote behavior, but simply to report
it.  Portrayal does not equal promotion.
