Why was this flagged?

  I'd like to know that as well. It seems like a perfectly reasonable Ask HN.

    Me three. This is an honest question. There are other industries that I'm personally opposed to (at least in practice), but that's no reason to flag a solid, honest question.

  I have no idea why they have flagged my post! I am asking a honest question about the bay area culture. It seems even mentioning adult industry gets you flagged there!

    HN users are overwhelmingly not in the Bay Area. Perhaps 10% are. It's been a while since I looked at the numbers.

      10% seems like a pretty large share for a single locale. Are there any geographic regions that are of a similar size with as large a HN viewership? Also, the original question seems broad enough to be applicable to people outside of the Bay Area. In essence the OP was asking how to soften the stigma of an adult business background to future investors.
