Quote:
I said I am opposed to the existence of this fiction and it's because I don't want people reading it. I said nothing about whether or not they should be allowed to read it, only about whether I wanted them to do so or not. It is entirely possible for a person to wish a certain behavior would not happen and at the same time to recognize that it is inappropriate to force people not to practice that behavior. Like smoking--I don't want people to smoke, but it's not appropriate to forcibly proscribe smoking.

You are failing to recognize nuance.
That's not nuance. If you say you are opposed to the existence of something, any reasonable person would think that you wanted it banned.
