All I did in Latin class is have old men rant at me about the downfall of society and the promiscuity of women. People certainly cared. Though, their solution was like yours. Force it all away. Needless to say, it did not work. You can't force human sexuality to not awaken.
BDSM lovers in poly relationships are not more prone to mental Illness, so I don't think openness towards sex causes mental problems... or rape.
