Both 'Lolita', and 'I know why the caged bird sings' present an interesting challenge to obscenity standards.
And if we want to regulate depictions of sex, why isn't there this level of controversy over violence? I think it is significant that GTA didn't get into trouble until they put sex into the game. What does this say about us?
Personally, i suspect it has to do w/ what is easier for a society to deal with.
Excessive violence is dealt with through the use of violence. (Incarceration, execution, or w/e.)
Excessive sex (historicly) leads to excessive birth, which burdens the 'village' for the whole lifetime of the superfolous individual.

Sorry, that was a little off topic.
Anyway, i would think that being careful and atleast trying to weed out the kids is a step in the right direction. This thread in and of itself shows a degree of maturity in that you are willing to take responsibility for your site. Good luck!
I had also heard about a bill awhile ago that tried to get the Pr0n industry to adopt a XXX domain. (To help anti-spam sw block incoming pr0n spam.) Don't know how far it got, though.
That would be an EXCELLENT way to regulate access to pr0n, as windows comes w/ a content filter access function.
