Not sure what you mean by "same category", but they are commonly both 
banned from certain types of communications media in various countries.

I refer you to Janet Jackson's "wardrobe malfunction" although the jury 
is still out in the USA regarding the acceptability of the word "Nigger" 
(although I wouldn't use the word myself other than in a context such as 
this).
