Hi,
I repeat this answer again:
As a Netizen, each person is entitled to free speech. It is up to us individually to decided what we should see and what we should not.
What may help is a .sex TLD which can volunteerily host sex sites. Sex sites can then have an option to host under this TLD and users who wish to restrict it can do so in an easier manner by avoiding all .sex sites.
Hopefully, this makes everyone happy...

Dear ICANN Member:
In my view, some regulation may be required to deal with illegal matters such as pornography, gambling, and fraud over the Internet. It will also be important to work toward consistent international rules in this area. I am working hard on these Internet related legal and policy issues in other forums (see www.mkatoh.net), but the issue you raise is not directly related to ICANN right now.
Sincerely,
M. Katoh

I would say we'd better regualte it. Normally, I don't like extreme sex products (it's O.K. with soft), but I am not against others who like it. But, please remember those things cost bandwidth of the whole net, So, we should at least regulate it other than disturbing the other users.
