I do not know if this is really the forum for the conversation but I agree with you. I am an American and have lived here all my life, my comments will show my age, many years ago there was a movie "Red Sun" with Charles Bronson and Ursula Andress. There was a scene where she is undressing in front of Bronson, there was no nudity shown. The movie was rate R in the US because of violence. I found out the the nude scenes were removed from the US version but left in the European version. The violence was removed from the Eruopean version but left in the US version. The other story is when the movie "Jaws" was released I was visting my Aunt and Uncle and my cousins wanted to see the movie. My Aunt was more worried about my 15yr old male cousin seeing the the girl swimming in the opening scene instead of the other scenes in the movie. I am proud to be from the US and grateful for the opportunities here. But I agree with you Huachafo, I think there is something a little skewed with our acceptance of violence and opposition to nudity here.
