YouTube Should Offer Partners Ads for Mature Content (NOT PORN)

The Issue

YouTube creators of sexy comedy or mildly suggestive material should be able to monetize their creations. Currently, there are a lot of double standards about what warrants an age restriction on YouTube and producers of suggestive material (NOT PORN) always live in fear of losing their advertising revenue when their videos are flagged and age restricted. I believe there are many advertisers who would willingly run their ads against such content if a special ad category of 18+ was created that they could opt-in to, and I also believe YouTube and Adsense would stand to gain more revenue.
