This would be an option, if there was sufficient demand. I am afraid though most authors wouldn't be interested in promoting their works in an opt-in, closed section with a strictly limited audience.

Certainly there are a few PD books that do have some sexual content (the aformentioned Fanny Hill, Lady Chatterly, etc).

Fair question. Discussing literary classics is excluded from the rule when those classics could also be taught in school. Posting sexually explicit content doesn't fall under the exception.
It is retroactive in a way that in the next days we'll be going through some problematic threads, in particular in the self-promo section.
Help is always appreciated - feel free to report a post or thread if you think it should have a second look.
