  Hey there,

  We permit mature content on WordPress.com. We do, however, ask that you report your blog as mature so we can properly filter the content from all-ages areas (e.g. search results and tag listings).

  Best,
  P.

  which contains pornography

  “Adult” or mature content blogs are allowed but pornography is not allowed.
  From the TOS http://en.wordpress.com/tos/
  Please don’t:
  •Post explicit sexual materials that can be considered pornographic, such as explicit images or video of sexual acts or close-up images of genitalia;
  •Post links or banner ads to adult-oriented affiliate networks, such as pornography site signups;
  •Post links, text, or images promoting or advertising escort services;
  •Post images of extreme violence or gore without associated context or commentary;
  •Post images of child pornography;
  •Post content that promotes pedophilia, such as blogs with galleries of images of children where the images, content surrounding the images, or the intent of the blog is sexually suggestive.
