I'm a bit uncomfortable about the "X" tag anyway, and I don't think it's appropriate here. Is there (still) an software that suppresses "X" entries.

  Comments:
personally, i don't think "masturbation", which is a perfectly inoffensive word (and the ~~preferred~~ term for the action), should qualify for an "X".  if "X" is to mean anything (and I'm not sure what really does keep it apart from "vulg"), I think it should be limited to terms for which the english glosses belong to a well-known list of bad words (e.g. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seven_dirty_words#The_words) rather than concepts that may make some people feel uncomfortable (e.g., someone else may complain that a certain sense of ホモ is not suitable for educational software.

マス is a really common part of many words, and I don't think it's necessarily helpful to have this definition showing up all the time in educational software.
