The cost was apparently to pay to have a site reviewed to see that it met their guidelines. They took my money then dropped my listing after a couple of weeks. Nice! Perhaps you could try running just a text ad - Bookkake? - include some sort of over 18 only thing. If that is refused then you'll know where you stand. Little point in talking to them. FB will be happy to take your money as long as they don't get complaints. Very best of luck ! I had a similar experience with Yahoo! years ago – they used to charge £400 to list an ‘adult’ site.

When I first started PervScan.com, I ran a Google Ad and then -- after a solid year of Google happily accepting my payments for the ad -- received a notice rejecting it for reasons similar to those Facebook gave you. I protested vehemently but to no avail. It's unfortunate that sites can't distinguish between porn spam and legitimate literary efforts... Your ad seems perfectly tasteful to me.
