It seems to come down to how broadly the "misleading" clause is interpreted. Consider the following 5 domains:
1) new-york-tourism.com
Obviously, this would be misleading if it led to a porn site. This has absolutely nothing to do with porn.
2) new-york-girls.com
While this domain is not overtly porn related and it could be used for mainstream purposes, it implies an adult relation.
3) new-york-anal-fisting.com
This domain is not explicitly excluded from the law since it doesn't contain the word "sex" or "porn" but it is obviously hardcore adult.
4) new-york-porn.com
Of the five this is the only domain that is explicitly ok.
5) playboy.com
There is nothing inherent to the word "playboy" that means adult. (playboy - n : a man devoted to the pursuit of pleasure [syn: man-about-town, Corinthian]) However, because of its use by a magazine, it has been co-opted to imply "naked women".
