Or, they could create two separate ad categories by including an option like "Allow ad to be displayed on potentially controversial, offensive or profane content". That way instead if being demonetized videos could simply be moved to this bucket and get ads from less high profile brands, that don't care about this.

Advertisers from France will never agree with advertisers from America on what is controversial. Not even speaking about advertisers from Saudi Arabia.

Excellent point. Saying vagina in the Netherlands isn't a big deal, in the US the FCC would be calling your boss.

"Vagina" is actually allowed. Also, this is among the gems of the google infobox: https://www.google.com/search?rls=en&q=fcc+forbidden+words
