Intrusive and Offending Ads
-
My father-in-law and spouse just reported to me that ads are my page are referring to a specific sexual preference showing two men kissing. My blog is a Christian web-site and while I do have friends in the gay community, it is against my values as a Christian. I am not going to pay $100 a year to have ads removed, rather I request that these type of ads be removed immediately.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

To support the service (and keep free features free), we sometimes run advertisements, and the agreement for this has been in our terms of service since 2006.
Many bloggers want to either pick the ads or only have contextually relevant ads. Online advertising today really doesn’t work that way. WordPress.com is a top 10 global site and for the most part we don’t get to pick ads, rather the advertisers pick us. We do have a process where we pick ad partners and we have screened out a number whose quality standards are not up to our standards. We can also block ads explicitly featuring sex, violence, and drugs, but currently it’s not possible for us to give bloggers the ability to pick ads or to run only contextually relevant ads.
We try hard to only run them in limited places. If you would like to completely eliminate ads from appearing on your blog, we offer our paid plans: https://store.wordpress.com/plans/
