What is in a rating?

I am stuck with a problem. I am wondering if my main story should stay Rated T or if for safety I should up it to Rated M and go for the gold. Nothing that I have planned I see as very bad. But others may disagree.

I am not sure what to do but I may go for the safest option and up it to rated M.

I don't want to scar any little fillies and colts in the audience.

If putting it to rated M would make people mad I may keep it at rated T and write around what I was thinking.

The Gala has been written now all I need to do is post it.

The only down side to an M rating is there are people like me that won't see it because they don't normally have mature rated access turned on. Other than that, don't really see an issue.

I'm not sure what the breakdown in it is.
