I agree that these are manifestations of America's puritanical roots.
And it's not that I believe there's anything wrong with all forms of "sexual deviance" - but deviation such as "pedophilia" and "rape" fantasy can be dangerous if someone crosses the line between fantasy and reality.
Consider Japan where male sexual repression has been the cultural "norm." Mangas that portray the sexual exploitation of children and schoolgirls as well as rape and sadistic sexual murder are quite prolific and popular.
