Warning: the following sites deal with "adult" material. Not that there's anything you can't find by doing a keyword search. Also, it should be noted that these sites do not necessarily contain material of an explicitly sexual nature. Bernadette Taylor's site does, along with and as part of her anti-censorship campaign, but the others contain non-explicit references to material that is adult by dint of being beyond the interests, generally, of those younger than adolescence.
