I'll read almost anything that is a.) interesting, b.) has historical value, or c.) has current cultural or political value. For example, I'll read columns by George Will, because even though I disagree with his politics, I think he presents coherent arguments that are worth taking into consideration. I will not read Ann Coulter, because her columns consist mainly of name calling and nonsensical facts not even tangetly supported bt evidence.
As for science fiction, literature, music, or film, I'll watch or read it if it meets the criteria above. I support other people's choices not to watch or read it, but not their insistence on boycotting it or refusing to let other people discuss it in public places. I support my mother's personal decisions to not watch Woody Allen films (she finds the marrying his step daughter thing to be off-putting), but if she wanted them banned from the library, I would tell her she's wrong to do that. Likewise, I'm not going to argue with a religious parent who doesn't want her kid to read Harry Potter or the His Dark Materials trilogy, but if the parent calls for those books to be banned from the school, I will again object.
