		<description><![CDATA[I for one, after reading this post and the googlesbannedwords post went and did my own safesearch, and then submitted an actual unsafe site to google for removal along with as long a rant as they would let me type berating them for discriminating with their filters. honestly. when &#039;nude&#039; is banned, but &#039;nudy&#039; isn&#039;t? grow up, google.

good luck, it&#039;s a hard fight, but worth fighting.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The reason there are no search results is simple: there is no such thing as a clitoris.  It is a myth perpetuated by feminists and lesbians with glans envy.  If women were meant to enjoy sex, they would have been born men.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[So you think it makes more sense to &quot;clean up&quot; your site to target people who have safe search filtering on (people who PROBABLY aren&#039;t in the market for porn anyway, no matter how real and artistic and celebratory it is and have specifically chosen to filter out explicit stuff) than it does to buy adwords? You know, PAY for advertising rather than think mathematical formulas will be tweaked especially to favor people who make award-winning and beautiful wonderful feel-good porn over people who think like machines and optimize their pages to get top search engine rankings? Or to hire someone who thinks like that to suggest and implement SEO and design improvements without compromising the spirit and personality of your work?

Search engines ARE stupid and they RARELY return results people really want or results that are the most &quot;deserving&quot; of front page attention. It&#039;s not a plot, it&#039;s the limitations of search engines and their ability to be taken advantage of by people who specialize in doing just that. Your &quot;diminished visibility on google&quot; and falling revenues are probably less a result of google ghettoizing you and more a results of a billion other factors (more competition from people who make it their business to make money) which you have the ability to deal with through more effective means than adding stupid words like &quot;vajayjay&quot; to your pages.

I know it&#039;s all very unfair and depressing -- you&#039;ll get no argument from me there and I love to whine and cry about it too -- but other people SPEND MONEY and PAY PEOPLE to get more exposure online; it&#039;s not something that&#039;s just going to be handed to you on a silver platter of critical recognition and product superiority, and bitching about google like it&#039;s some sentient monster out to bury the good guys who make the best content isn&#039;t going to get you very far and seems really lame when google has ways built in that you can get front page results through old-fashioned ad-buying targeted at people who want exactly what you offer. Or try diversifying your content delivery methods (or, if you don&#039;t want to do that, recognize that THAT might be another major factor in your falling revenues, that you&#039;re not giving people ways to buy your films that internet savvy people WANT).

I hope google hears your pleas and takes clitoris off the list of banned words, first because it makes sense but also so you can focus your energy on things that will actually make a difference to your bottom line. I know I&#039;m acting like a total fucking asshole by posting this, but I can&#039;t seem to help myself. I really do wish you success and TONS of visibility.]]></description>
