Hey, they’re fine done right, but limited in what they can express. So there’s a huge risk of them being trite or without nuance. It’s still the artist’s own words (I assume), and those should be considered on their own merit.
Ooga booga. Those mythical SJW strawman-flingers again! How bogeyman. Very bullshit.
The mouthpiece is completely undermined by its own followup sadly, but it’s at least right in that “slut” is an epithet that conveys scorn. One that statistically punches down too, so I tend to avoid using the word or associating with folks who throw it around.
While accurate, I have to admire the irony of Rarity, a pony dedicated to looking for her one true love and refusing to settle for anything less, saying this.

Well, very little nowadays, but there definitely were-and still kind of are in some countries, places like the middle east. No one takes them seriously in non-shit parts of the world, though.

Obviously, you tell them that other methods exist…and why it’s a bad idea, in reasonable tones of voice. You’ve got to be logical about it or you’ll just cause more danger out of rebellion.
The “stigma” should be more like “if you have STD’s, don’t endanger anyone else’s lifes, don’t have sex (or have protected sex if that works)” instead of “just don’t have as much sex as you’d like to”. It’s the potential offenders that should be careful instead of the potential victims.
