It's a context thing. 'Boy', 'Young', 'Twink' it's all an area we know to be a minefield at the moment. I just think Globill have made that connection.
That said, I am not saying they are right. Just that's prolly the thinking behind it.

Then where do you draw the line? There's a load of sites out there use the word sex and fucking when talking about lolitas. Are these words to be banned too? I see to an extent what you're saying but twink remains something not connected with underage sex. Until recent years it didn't even mean late teens. When any company (especially one like Globill who should at least have half a clue) starts dragging fairly generic terms into the CP arena for little real reason things just start to get absurd.
Lolita has always had a totally different meaning. It only ever meant underage as it was taken from a book about just that subject. Twink is the total opposite.
It really is a form of homophobia. A total lack of understanding or willingness to learn a little about a subject (you are otherwise happy to take dollars from) because you find it distasteful. There's no other real explaination.
