Of course, and not just in US. I don’t think any sane person thinks we should not limit cousins getting married, non-consensual sexual acts, pedophilia, etc. In many places in Europe sex work is perfectly legal and taxed like any other business.

In the past there has been stupid regulations on what consenting adults (of the same sex for instance) could do together. This created a system where group A could get married and were lauded, while the group B went to jail. I am not saying all laws and regulations are good, but we absolutely do need them, and we need to make them just and good. For instance, today we protect the group B’s rights to marry and love with laws.

The US kinds of stands out as far more um... "prudish" than most other countries though, at least in my understanding of things.

And the US seem to be trying to spread its level of um... "prudish"-ness to any country it feels isn't as anti-sex?

The VISA and Mastercard + Steam kerfuffle recently seems like that kind of thing, but there are heaps of instances in that set historically.
