What is "adult or mature content"?

    Recently 2 of my sites was banned because of adult or mature content..
    What they considered to be adult content was the review of 2 "erotic games" that are displayed on almost all download websites (no explicit content, no nudity pics,etc..)

    So, what is considered adult/mature content?

    Apparently the sales or promotion of adult content (in this case, the two erotic games) as well as the content itself.

    If we're talking AdSense here they have some nuns who determine what is and isn't adult content. On a different forum I heard someone complain that they had been suspended from AdSense for displaying pictures of male models wearing underwear. No nudity - just a few bulges underneath the fabric. They really are picky.

    They are the big boss here and we are publisher bro. They have the right to do anything.

    that's weird... don't they have a description of what they classify as 'adult' just like there are several clarifications on the "images next to ads" issues and all?

    But you are allowed to put AdSense on celebrity sites, and they don't consider that Adult? Because usually the female celebrities wear pretty sexy outfits.
