Apparently, I stand corrected.
You SEO guys always crack me up - I cant think of a bigger scam than SEO as a business. That said, you are the one making assumptions: 1) that I am conservative 2) that I am not an expert. Further, I don't know how George and his Administration enters the camgirl and domain discussion, but I bet the AG would investigate it and throw some people in jail for obscenity, given the opportunity.
You can fiddle with your HTML and META tags all you want, but the search engines are smarter than you. Like I said, hyphens may give you a slight advantage, but (and I don't want to erode your customer base by letting them know the truth) its not worth the confusion for the end user. How do I know? I worked for Yahoo and I worked for Google and I have seen the code. So, lets get back to the original question.
Once again, your domains are fine - not great, but fine. In fact, I think they are well above average, but you are still going to be second place to the non-hyphenated versions. So what if you get ranked a little higher in the engines - people are going to type it without the hyphen and you are going to have a hard time capturing that logical traffic.
I thought I was acknowledging your very valid points while injecting my own opinion and facts, but clearly you are way too smart to listen to anyone else. I mean, why ask for opinions when you know you can rank these domains #1 and #2 with your SEO expertise and make a fortune with Adsense? In fact, you could take IPickMyBoogers.com and push it up to #1 for camgirls - why not do that?

However, these names could stay in this area, but when visited they link to a parking page with adult content, therefore must be moved.
Clearly, I was way out of line for suggesting that these domains are more suited for adult.
