Do you mean in the banners on top? If so, please post a screenshot of that ad, so we can ask the webmaster to contact the ad company to remove those ads.

Or are there people (bots) who post on your forum advertising that kind of websites?

Your forum has Google ads. Google ads are tailored to the discussions, by keywords that were used. It is possible that a member used the word "gay" in post, and the word "dating" was written in another. So when on that post page, ads with the word "gay" might appear.

While some people have religious or other type of objections to homosexuality, it is not something pornographic in an of itself. There are many "gay" teens and adults in the world. If, however, the ads lead to gay porn site, that is another matter. If so, do be sure to post a screenshot of the ad.

You can pay to have ads removed from your forum. See:

This is not an urgent problem, so I have moved this thread to the "non-urgent problems" folder.
