Is there any rhyme or reason to Google supps?

I tend to believe that that is exactly what Halfdeck referred to it as - one guy's theory.

Do a search for free teens in Google. No need to use the words porn or fucking or sucking or nude or xxx. Six of the first 10 results, including the number one spot, are porn. Good SEO will always triumph over alleged filters. If mainstream sites happen to better optimized and have better linking strategies than porn sites, why shouldn't they rank high in the results? In other words, Walrus, I agree with your initial response.
