Are there any Hub guidelines on what sort of words you can use to describe a man's bits without being too graphic and getting the hub rejected when writing a health hub?
I have just published a light hearted look at the myths and fears surrounding a Vasectomy, but wasn't sure how far you could get in describing a man's bits, so I have steered away from using the correct words or slang. Is it better to use the correct terminology?
Thanks
David
...i don't know what the rules are...but i just don't think that using proper terminology should really be a problem...took a look at your hub...chuckled at the way you re-worked the words....what's wrong with the word penis or testicles, etc....just my opinion
When in doubt read the Google Adsense guidelines. Graphic language whether salicious or educational is generally not a good idea, when it comes to a site monetized with Google. You're better off starting a site not connected to it, if you want to delve into those areas.
I'm sure once you don't use vulgar slang words you'll be fine. I say you'll get away with saying penis and such, but maybe don't say the word starting with 'C' or others. lol once it all doesn't sound like porn.

Hi,I published this hub last night. This morning, I see a blank space where the "H" for featured usually goes. I've never seen this happen before. Is the hub being moderated for some reason? I have not received an email or anything notifying me that the hub is in violation. Please give...

I just logged in and it shows every single one of my hubs highlighted in pink, to need review. The majority of these were well trafficked and featured hubs or editor's choice. Did something happen? I tried looking in the questions and forums and didn't see anything. I am not a former Squidoo person...
