Again my question is whether Google imposes a PENALTY for mainstream links to a pornsite.

A secondary question is whether Google's relevance disparity algorithm raises a bigger red flag for backlinks from a mainstream blog to a borderline porn fetish site, or for backlinks from a blog about Ford truck alternators to a site about pitbull puppies.(ie: random mainstream to random mainstream)

Thanks
