Yours should be x-rated, what with all those nasty words! All I had was "the gays" and I got the same rating as you!

Heh. I got an R rating for the page in my encyclopedia (http://pwencycl.kgbudge.com) on nuclear weapons, apparently because there were so many mentions of the words "bomb" and "weapon." Also "rape" appeared once, in the context of the Rape of Nanking.

I would never have thought I'd be less family-friendly than Eclectecon!

The sad thing is, there are probably Internet filters for children out there that work just this way, and would prevent students from using my encyclopedia.
