That's what I thought last time someone suggested some removals from
another sexual subject.  Different criteria may be applied to sexual sites
(I'm open to the possibility, though it seems far-fetched if the site is
otherwise encyclopedic) but if we do adopt a "no commercial links"
approach to sexual topics we should not pretend that they're the same
criteria that would be applied to, say, sports.
