It is the purpose of this chapter to regulate the direct commercial distribution of certain explicit sexual materials to minors in order to aid parents and guardians in supervising and controlling the access of minors to such materials. The Court finds that whatever social value such material may have for minors can adequately be served by its availability to young persons through their parents or guardians. It is also the purpose of this chapter to prohibit open public display of certain explicit sexual materials, in order to protect persons from potential offense through involuntary exposure to such materials.
