That is incorrect.

If you hold the trademark to the .com, and it's for an adult themed website, by extension you would also hold the trademark to the .xxx

All this is moot anyway, chances are a trademark for bustyamateurboobs would not hold up if it was a website about amateurs with busty boobs. It is too descriptive.
