Read through the program policies. I've never run adult type sites, but I've known alot of people who have. Two things I can tell you for sure about your situation:
1) Google staff doesn't "review sites regularly", at least not as they try to infer a uniform rotating review process. To do so would consume far too many resources. They review sites that have been reported for violations from users by way of the links google provides - that's it. I had adsense running on a website for over a year before it got reported, and within a week of getting reported I got an email from Google threatening account closure/etc. The complaint being Google changed their Terms of Service to exclude using pictures near ads, which was convieniently a very vague definition. I didn't update my site to reflect the changes, because the click-rates tank when you disrupt page flow with an ad and it screams "I'm an advertisement, please filter me out of your brain", even if the ad is contextually related subject matter. I know the review was triggered from a visitor to the site reporting it, because I had the website tracking every link clicked, even the fancy google ad links. I assume it was someone from a competing site trying to remove competition, since it had gone more than a year without any problems.
In the end I simply moved to another PPC, and eventually off PPC altogether as the PPC model for that subject matter inflated and rates tanked. So either make sure you comply with their terms, or prepare for jealous neighbors when you get big enough.
2) For any type of adult/risque media, there are FAR better monetization options than Google Adsense. I've known alot of people online over the years who have retired from that medium, and they've not done it using text ads.
