It's like a virtual red light district - everyone knows what's there and you make your own decision about whether you want to enter it or not, but you can't throw an "OMFG itz teh pr0n" hissy fit if you get boobs on your screen. If you end up at hardcore.xxx it's your own damn fault. Make it mandatory and you'll get right wing god botherers campaigning for specific sites to be censored against their will. They may only be adult themed sites, without any hardcore pornography. Voluntary .xxx domains are so adult webmasters can tell the religious freaks to shove it. "We made it easy to identify us if you wanted to stay away. If you're here, it's 'cause you WANT to be here, not because we tricked you into the evil pr0nz."
