Is sex X-rated?

    Is the topic of sex considered as mature at wordpress.com? As an author I would like to write about sex and literature. Many years ago the book Sexus was published, and it was a huge thing then. I would like to write a post on that theme, discussing the question of how far a writer can bring that topic today, without passing the boundaries for what´s accepted today.

    The main topic of that post would not be sex, but sex within literature. I would have to mention sex and write about. It would not be graphic, but more questions about what´s ok to write about (topics).

    The blog I need help with is swedishmaggie.wordpress.com.

    Mature means not suitable for general audiences. See detailed staff reply here:

    So if I understand your link correctly, I can write a post about a serious theme that would be X-rated if I use some words or pictures. But because I explain things without using their words and pictures it would be ok. You actually have to be an adult to understand what I have written, to be able to read "between the lines." That´s ok to post without X-raing a blog.

    Am I right?

    I have say: don't count 100% on getting a reply. These Forums are great, but Support is extremely hit and miss.
