You have to realize that this is the internet. As we grow into a big community, we're going to be getting all sorts of members, and chances are some of them are not going to be kids. It's fine if you want to be child-friendly, but at the same time, be flexible and know that everyone from children to adults use the forum! If you want to make a hidden forum to discuss things that are 18+ or whatever (as long as it's not pornography, but if it's a topic discussing porn, then eh), then that's something I can roll with.
It just seems like we're bending over for children when in all honestly it does limit people: It limits people who want to discuss adult topics. If we want to grow, how are we supposed to do that without at least attempting to reach a compromise so that both sides can be happy? Children don't have to go there, and adults have a place to discuss mature content in a sensible, non-idiotic manner. I do not see any negative implications in regards to our forum as a result of this.
