    Hi guys,

    I made a quiz on my website that has pictures of guys who dress up as women and also women. Its a quiz to see if you can tell if its a female or a male.

    There is no nude pictures or anything like that, just a simple test for a bit of fun and I get about 500 people a day and sometimes spikes of up to 8,000 people.

    Adsense sent me a warning saying it is called as adult content which is BS.

    Then after some contact, they replied saying it is not family friendly and they wouldnt want there children looking at this site. I guess it has a gay flavour to the quiz, but I think they are banning it because it has a gay reference to it just because the blokes have makeup on.

    But its 2012, I thought kids know what gay people are and learned not to discriminate, I am not gay and I don't think it really matters.

    What do you think? What other steps should I take, or do you think thats it, I cant really do anything about it?

    Only thing you can do is play the game by the rules of Google. If they say its against the rules then you better change it or you might get banned.

    It's Adsense's game so they make the rules. Our only choice is to play by their rules or go home.
