Google is done letting people get down and dirty with the Play Store. The Google Play Developer Program policies are getting revamped and it should expel any “erotic” content from the store. So your eyeballs will need a new storefront to glean upon as you wipe the drool from your face. While there was nothing very raunchy found in the Play Store, there was certainly some content that should not have been there since it is a store for everyone. For example, there were some wallpaper apps with scantily clad women. There is a time and a place and the Play Store just isn't that place.
In addition to stripping the Play Store of this kind of stuff, Google will also be cracking down on applications that appear in questionable ads. Regardless of your knowledge, being involved with a questionable ad can lead to your application's ejection from the Play Store. New apps must comply with these policies right away and existing apps have fifteen days to update.
There are other minor changes, and developers should certainly take a look at the source link below.

Great job
Are escorts apps allowed on Google Play?
I am happy about this. I don’t believe that porn is healthy for my mind, yet I have trouble avoiding it. The less opportunity I have to come across it, the better. I still wish something would be done about YouTube, Facebook, and Twitter. They have plenty of sexually explicit material.
This should also clean out a major vector of malware/scamware.
Really google owners cretins ! Or maybe they muslims ? … O no , they all gays !
They hate woman in bikini or glamour lingerie )). They will only lost traffic , many normal mens will download this apps from other markets , sites and torrents.
More American puritanical values? Why not shift them into an over 18s section?
Oh come on now, don’t be silly – not only is that common sense, but that’d mean that we’d all have to be treated like adults… And we can’t have EITHER of those things in “modern society”!
Meh.
That’s why there’s the (third-party) “MiKandi” application store, which for the record is not “just porn” (though that is its primary purpose) – any that is banned from the Google Play Store (and is not illegal or offering/promoting something illegal!) is permitted I MiKandi application store… Gambling games (i.e. With real money) are available in MiKandi, for example.
And because of the “cloud-based” scanner built-in to modern Android devices (which scans ALL applications, regardless of source) or a third-party scanner like Kaspersky (which also scans ALL applications, regardless of source), the risk of using a third-party application store is negligible (though if you want to be extra safe, just un-tick the “third-party sources” option on your Android device when you’ve downloaded whatever it is you want from MiKandi)…
So, no apps with “scantily clad women”, but still hundreds of shoot-em-ups, first person snipers, and similarly gory games. We live in a funny ol’ world where smiley, happy, half-dressed (shock! horror! I see naked flesh!) people are banned, while murder and mayhem earn five stars.
