As both a parent and web site developer my view is that the proposal 
to create a new Sponsored Top-Level Domain .xxx is merely an attempt 
by a commercial organisation to create a highly profitable business 
from a service that will be low cost to them but protentailly 
generate huge revenues.

This is well argued by Seth Finkelstein at 
http://technology.guardian.co.uk/weekly/story/0,,1997492,00.html

If the proposal is to proceed .xxx should be administered by a not 
for profit organisation not based in the United States with any 
surplus generated used to sponsor academic research on the effects of 
the use of pornography.
