It'll likely be enforced at the register level before we see it enforced on a legal level. There was a case this morning of domains with girl and teen being shut off (I'll find the thread later).
With people pushing the envelope with how young they're making the "legal" teens look, it's only a matter of time before we get more heat.
I just got an email from sedo pulling one of my domains from their parking Pro program for having the word teen in it - the domain was sex-pics-teen.com - of course there was no content - just sedos parking page

The first adult domain I bought was Girlsmania.com, I can remember as far back as 01-02 it was really hard for me to by PPC on most SE's (except Google I think). They were refusing the campaign because of the word "Girls" in the domain relating to porn.
I think it will depend on what's ON the domain. Like when "breast" was deleted from AOL search until they realized that got rid of breast cancer, breast feeding, etc. searches.
I dont think it will become illegal. With 18 being legal age if they did that than that would open the door to ban several other names.Such as girl because it dosent explain the exact age of the female in question.
I dont think it would be illegal. Combination of words matters more than "teen" alone.

Why should teen be illegal?I mean when someone say teen that doesnt reffer to porn at all,its a general term for older kids.

I should have made it clear in my first post I guess, I'm referring to "teen" in porn domains. I thought we were all on the same page hehe.
I think it's prudent to avoid any potential trouble regardless. Just look at how adwords broad definition of "teen porn concepts" has effected so many advertisers. I call it handwriting on the wall.

I got rid of all my teen domains 2+ years ago.
Yepp, I have stopped making long term investments in "teen" domains a long time ago.
domains? bigger picture - porn industry and "teen" concept will split apart some time in future. public will not tolerate seeing nude "teens" for long as term "teen" relates to kids more than to anything else. as industry we should introduce new terms for that type of content (18+) and educate viewers. if that ever happens this industry rep will only benefit. requiring models be 21 to get in to the industry would be a super plus but our greed won't allow it until someone else tells us to.
if industry won't take steps in protecting its market and being responsible, think there will be a witch hunt of teen porn production and distribution.
Can't remember which hosts, but a couple don't accept "teen" in domain names on their network. Think Rackspace is one...
Can see it being a possible "issue" in the US, but doubt anywhere else - as long as the individuals depicted are of legal age (and this can vary a degree, depending on the country).
this shit has been on the wall for several years...

LOL man..I will try to explain it again. Most of us here work in PORN and we are referring to PORN domains. When you get back in the biz you will understand, OK?
