Oh, c’mon. I’m deep inside the monkey house of American education, and the answer is simple. There are two sets of rules - one for the Left, and one for everyone else. If the Left likes something, then it receives an appropriate adjective - provacative, thoughtful, insightful. If the others like it, then there are other adjectives - racist, bigoted, sexist, exclusionary, oppressive.
It’s possible to think like this when you believe that there is no truth, just your truth and my truth, based on our race, ethnicity, gender, and historical circumstance.
Because Its All About Sex. Graphic sexual content will always trump any other difficulties a work of “art” may have. Just ask yourself, “Would this upset my Mom and Dad?” and if the answer is YES, then IT’S IN!
Remember, it’s all about Toddler Liberation (term coined by P.J. O’Rourke)!

I'm willing to bet that in the little red school house down on the “Animal Farm” one of those two sets of rules is more equal than the other!
Oink!
