They may very well have policies that consider anything homosexual as pornographic-or it might be the bias of the staffer doing the site evaluations. I recall there's a way that you can request a revaluation for your rating.
Actually, they have policies which allow anyone roaming around your photos to flag them or file complaints about "offensive" content. http://www.flickr.com/guidelines.gne
"Don’t forget the children. Take the opportunity to filter your content responsibly. If you would hesitate to show your photos or videos to a child, your mum, or Uncle Bob, that means it needs to be filtered. So, ask yourself that question as you upload your content and moderate accordingly. If you don’t, it’s likely that one of two things will happen. Your account will be reviewed then either moderated or terminated by Flickr staff....." [Maybe this is for people who can't or won't figure out how to block sites so their kids can't go there?]
"Other People (their content, their behavior) You will see all sorts of things on Flickr, some of which may offend you. If you are offended by a photo or video you can either click away or you can mark it as poorly moderated by clicking on the "Flag this photo" link on a photo page under “Additional Information”. If you think there's immediate cause for concern, you can report content and/or someone's behavior to Flickr staff via the “Report Abuse” link that’s available in the footer of every page."
