Dude, I learn something new about you every day.
Mine was rated “R” because the word “Pain” came up 20x in my blog and “drug” came up once. I think their rating might be a tad hypersensitive…
But cool idea.
Val, I need to go check and see why you’ve used the word “pain” so often.
hmmm.
I have written about breast cancer, and breasts without cancer…and thanks to a reader, sex toys somehow got incorporated into my blog, and I still got a G rating.
I am way too much of a Pollyanna, even when I try - I cant seem to get a bad-girl rating.
Clearly, you kept those breasts covered, Laura.
Autism Vox is strictly for the family-friendly set.
Family-friendly means a whole lotta different things to different people!
