My guess has always been that because there is such an abundance of link trading in the adult industry (poker and pills too) that the algorithms are sort of slowed down from detecting unnatural links in the heaping mess of interlinking going in adult.
Mainstream, from my experience has not put as much effort into link buying/trading and therefore most MS sites doing anything shady that you could get away with in adult will be much more visible to the eye of Google. Also, mainstream has social media venues not available in porn marketing, or at least more difficult to utilize in an optimal way which could account for the adult industry trend to put more focus on link building.

Yes it sucks, unfortunately for most webmasters alot of the big guys got in during that golden age when link buying was 100% effective and they had the funding to do it, now they are basically grandfathered in SE's. Would be nice to see a few of them fall down at least a rung or two on this update.
