Fight: No problemo.....they should lock the prior threads, and point folks to this thread only.
What was interesting is that the US Trademark office actually allowed some registered trademarks on domains with .xxx in them, with applicants arguing that it's not generic because ICANN decided not to go ahead with .xxx! Now they're first in line to grab those names in the sunrise/landrush. See lesbian.xxx as one example (Elite Family LLC is behind several of the applications/registrations):

If one prints out all the "TDR" records associated with that application, they mention on page 7 of 9 of one of the documents that "ICANN has recently made the decision not to allow creation of a .xxx top level domain."
The actual domain name that the "TM" is used is on lesbiandotxxx.com (as are many of the other TMs they registered, for _____dotxxx.com).
Also, XPays owns a registered TM for "XXX", see:
