If a 5 year old plays GTA, that's their problem.
I just saw an 5-year old play Saints Row xD

Ratings exist for a reason.
Profanity in games is the same as profanity in real life, and TV shows, and movies, and music. First off, you are not going to be able to avoid it no matter what. You can, however, choose to limit how much you have to come in contact with it. In other words, stop playing those games and stop watching those TV shows and movies or listening to that type of music.
Most people can hear profanity and not even be affected by it. I, myself, really couldn't care less if someone in a game says before a battle, "Let's win this one." or "Let's f*ck 'em up out there." Words are words, and they will never bother me unless it becomes something degrading that could possibly offend a certain group of people. Even then, I'm pretty laid back. But I'm sure things like that would offend someone.
At the same time, they do have ratings for a reason. When you get something that says Rated T, they will list reasons which could be "Mild violence" "Mild language" "Suggestive themes" etc. Meaning you could find out the reasons for what how the game or whatever got that rating. Rated M could say "Excessive violence" or something along those lines.
As for pornography, it's hard for me to really say anything against that. Sex, nudity, etc, is something that is completely normal and just about everyone experiences that stuff in their life. The reason that violence is considered "worse" to me is because that's not something you go around experiencing. Hopefully, you will go your entire life without pulling a trigger on someone or having a gun in your face. However, almost everyone is going to experience sex or something sexual in their life.
And you really should know what a penis or vagina is. It's not something that you should be sheltered from nor offended by. They exist, and yes, actually, you have one of the two. Check below. It's hard to believe that someone actually hears "vagina" or sees one and then cries or has nightmares or is thoroughly hurt by it. And if you are, then .... there's not really much for me to say to that.
I do think that younger children should not be exposed to great amounts of this stuff all the time. I was exposed to horror movies at a young age and was fine, but not everyone would be. My dad didn't want me to play Super Smash Bros. until I was like 12 because he was worried about the violence.
My point is, I really find it hard to believe that someone is going to actually be offended over a bad word of sex. And if someone is actually upset over what they find in a game or movie, then stop playing or watching. Most people can handle that stuff, though.
I agree with profanity and pornography in all their wonderful and varied forms.
Why do you think I almost never play anything above rated T?
Because you're scared?
No, I've seen and heard all of it before. I just don't want to. My life is full of enough sin, I don't want one of the few things I find joy in to be filled with it. God wants me to avoid those things, so I'll do my best to do that. Now if anyone wants to say something stupid and immature about my beliefs, you can begin to criticize me now.

Cool.I've always been (and always will be) against profanity in games, these words, when used, can deeply offend someone.
lmaoThe same thing is with pornography, it is very "embarrassed."
HSOWA?
The furries will have a field day.
Of course, and they always will, but I don't agree with the philosophy that all innappropriate games should be banned just for the sake of children who shouldn't be exposed to that kind of stuff.kids will always find a way around....
