    i asked Shawn back in feb this year, and he said as long as the anchor text aint something like "Anal sex" or the like, then i'll be ok,
    just tell me this, how do you have an ad for a site thats about sexual health advice without saying that?

    to class the words sexual health advice as Adult when most schools start giving 13 year old sexual health advice, is a joke right?

    its like selling doubble glazing and not being able to mention the word windows

    someone needs their head testing, i have pm'd Shawn about it

    Must agree on this one... I have many kid related sites and I sure wouldn't want to be sending them to this site.

    just to quote what Shawn said back in feb:

    so i can join and not get banned, and i can have that ad as i understand what Shawn said, because it does not contain "butt*******betha.com" or the like.

    you forgot to mention that the site has movies of self exam for cancer and what the tampon and tss page has on it. but its not about the site being a none adult site..... i give up

    You might have good advice, and I might like dirty sex. But regardless, I simply wouldn't want to link to a site that said the words "Vaginal Fingering" or "Anal Sex on Him" for several reasons:

    1. its offensive to conservative people
    2. it could set off a bad nieghborhood penalty

    One thing I found interesting though - was with the google safesearch set to "OFF" you're site:url showed 7,000 or so pages, and with the STRICT filter ON it showed around 11,000 or so pages :confused: (still scratching head on that one)

    does my ad contain the words Anal sex? no it dont.
    as to the 7,000 and 11,000 pages, hmmm my site has only 200 pages, and a forum, my guess is that less posts in the forums under "sex" "sexual health advice" and more posts in the none sexual forums, ie cars music and the like. if it counts the forum pages.

    It's counting forum pages - the oddball part is

    Safe Search OFF : 7,000 pages
    Strict Safe Search On : 11,000 pages

    WTF is up with that? Shouldn't it be the other way around?

    Read your quotes, you have already answered your question

    You are pointing ads to a site with disgusting things like "anal sex on him", and I sure wouldn't want to send my young visitors to such a place, no matter how educational it might be

    Well I think your site is a good idea Samantha. What I can't understand is why theres always such a big hoohah about teenagers getting taught sex education but little kids are allowed to play all kinds of totally violent video games?

    http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-7153152098207965240

    In case you guys hadn't noticed people have been having sex for the last 50,000+ years. You'd think by now a responsible young woman could have a sex education resource without complaint.

    This isn't a discussion about morals or how to educate your kids, it is about the type of content that the ads is linking to, and I agree with the reviewer that it would be classified as adult content. Feel free to send your kids to educate themselves about sex using the internet, but I would rather not send them to such a site.

    your site Discount Lingerie a site full of girls in just knickers and bra, so to call my site a dirty sex site,when yours has more bare ass than most porn sites, is calling the kettle black
    Vinyl Kitty Costume
    Adult Costumes
    Sexy Bra and Panty Sets, Bra and Thong Sets
    Strippers & Dancers
    Sexy Panties, Thongs, G-Strings and Boy Shorts
    Bodysuits & Bodystockings

    who makes money from the sex industries then? i dont, but you sure do,

    Hon Daddy Dad thanx sweetie X

    Shawn has already looked at my site and said its ok,

    Unfortunately the reality is a lot of teenagers are getting their education about sex from hardcore pornsites now days.

    Well I disagree. I do not think it should be classed as adult content since it is clearly aimed at teenagers. On the other hand its obviously not suitable for kids.

    There are other sites on the adnetwork which are not appropriate for kids.

    my site gets 18,000 people a month, and from that if just 1 girl is safe from harm, then i have done my bit. sadley not everyone can talk to parents about stuff, most sexual abuse is done at home, its something most kids cant talk about, most sexual abuse is reported between age 25 and 35, when the victim is an adult and has thier own kids.

    pressure from other kids to have sex is also a major factor in teen pregnacy, and if my site helps to delay that then good.

    some kids are still going to do it anyway, should i just ignore them? no i think its best to make sure they are safe, and a little wiser, and if they do do it, then do it safely.
    should i ignore people that are gay? no, they have the right to be safe to.
    should i try and keep up with the times? and includ anal sex,? well its hard for 2 gay guys to have sex without it. so i have to make sure they are safe to,

    STD's are on the up, if looking at the STD pics makes someone think and put off sex for another year, then i have done something good.
    you can not have a site like mine and cater for 1 group of people. every one is equal and has the right to information to be safe.

    the ad in its self is ment to be as friendly as i can make it, and without being crude in any way, as people see it, i think that few would click it, but what if your daughter was drunk, and had sex? but was affraid to tell you? it happens you know. would you sooner she found out what help she can get? or would you ask when you see her belly in 6 months time?

    my site is far from adult, its has as much information as i can get on it, and its about 1/3 of the size i have planned for this year.

    I am not against your site or its quality, I agree that the information is very useful, but unfortunately the coop system doesn't allow any restrictions on the category of ads shown on sites, so your links would be showing on sites that just aren't fit for that kind of theme. An ad for a site with flash games can be shown on any type of site, but an ad potining to a site with information about sex needs to have some sort of restriction.

    and what restrictions would you impose?

    back in feb i had a long talk with Shawn about it, and asked him to go and look at my site, he told me i could join, and he has no problem with it, but others might have.
    i am open to sugestions, i have not just joined and said bugger everyone, i have thought long and hard over it.
    i could have joined back in feb when i asked

    Well... what I mean is that for example I would allow the ad to show on many of my sites, but wouldn't want it on some others that are designed for kids.

    Since it isn't possible to choose the type of ads you can show on your sites I guess that is why yours got denied.

    but its not about the site Shawn said, its about the content of the ad, and there is nothing offencive in the ad. so the ad should be allowed

    No, honey, Shawn said "it's what you use your weight to point ads to", and you are pointing ads to a site about sex... call it sex information or whatever you want, but it is still sex related and that is a delicate theme.

    the anchor text does not say anal sex in it, just the link to my site and sexual health advice.
