MC and Visa have both made statements that this has nothing to do with their policies, which are officially "we'll process payments for any legal purchase." (They don't mention that for some legal purchases, they require a substantial annual fee and retainer against possible chargebacks.)

edit- i read a book years ago titled "the entity" during the book a woman is raped by a ghost. since this policy includes text of rape are they suggesting they wont allow it to be sold as an ebook using paypal? or since it actually is a part of the overall story arc and plot does it have "serious literary or artistic" value? "will it be okay with them to sell paper copies?
It's moot now; PayPal has said they only have an official policy about erotic *images*, not text, and the policy for those is to ban individual works that seem to them to fit the legal definition of obscenity.
