Isn't sexual identity / orientation protected as well? These companies are banning clients for simply talking about sex.
That seems like a grey area but it's treading pretty close to discrimination in my mind.
Then again, should Google be forced to put adsense ads on a porn site? Really murky territory.

Gender identity and sexual orientation are each protected under minority of state laws (overlapping but not identical minorities, IIRC.) > That seems like a grey area but it's treading pretty close to discrimination in my mind. It's absolutely discrimination. The question is whether it is or should be illegal discrimination.
