NC 17, X, AO etc, all are taboo ratings because they are for ages 18 and over, across the pond both ways you can buy and sell 18 rated films and games and books no problem. But in the US they are banned and forbidden by society.

Basically theaters won't show them and a lot of places won't sell them. If they do the bible thumpers come out and screech about the children they don't give a fuck about and Jesus whose teaching they don't actually follow.
