Not at all, prurient, objectionable exploitative material should be dealt with and responded to to as prurient, objectionable exploitative material. I want such material not to be produced. However, that I want such material not to be produced does not give me any more right to outlaw its production than the prurience of Barbara Cartland gives me a right to ban that.
Censorship is dangerous - and I know pædophilia is dangerous, but then deal with those dangers through sexual offences legislation, not through censorship.
