I'm not sure it's "woke" or whatever culture war narrative has been spun in some quarters.

The history of cinema shows that any halfway competent film maker can find a "compelling" narrative or artistic reason (even an apparently woke feminist one) to get women's clothes off. I think the censorship is to do with appealing to particular markets/demographics/countries/target certification - market forces.
