And honestly, from what I remember, the ones I read were relatively tame. Certainly nothing as blatant as what one can find online at places such as the Nifty Erotic Stories Archive (whom I note have a disclaimer on the front page saying Note: All of the characters in these stories are portrayed by adults 18 years of age or older. So there. - that doesn't make much sense to me seeing as there are no real people involved, but okay).
I'd have to say my favorite story there would be Double Trouble (feel free not to follow that link if the obvious implications disturb you, but it's a tasteful story... depending on your tastes I suppose), and I fail to see how reading it should get me tossed in jail. As far as I'm able to tell, my reading it isn't harming any children (and fear not; I ain't ever planning to).
Nor is there any proof that reading such a story would cause a person to go out and act on it - which is precisely what a Canadian judge ruled before the case in question went up to the Supreme Court.
Just adding my two cents, if I don't get moderated out of existence anyway;-).
