OK, that is a valid design decission.

Your comment makes a lot of sense though. Well, if a game is tagged as violent & as including sex, that should cover most games. Maybe you should look at the social things like humilation, torture or domination. They are a class of their own and already represented in your system. Of course, this part of the discussion is highly theoretical. Games like this aer _very_ unlikely to enter Debian any time soon for a myriad of reasons, imo. > Gore is somehow different, it just refers to the visual images.

I am not sure if people will interpret Gore that way, though. 'Graphic display of blood' and stuff along those lines? > This is just the lower layer.
