I much prefer how most of Europe tends to deal with this issue of human sexuality. There is far more honesty and far less squeamishness. Where they get squeamish is when it comes to violence, for it seems that they have learned that violence is just a tad more destructive than images of the human body having sex.
I often wonder which is more harmful for a child, seeing a picture of a naked body, or having it constantly reenforced that sex is wrong, dirty, and something that should never be discussed out in the open. In my opinion, the latter is far more harmful and ultimately, does nothing to protect anyone. People don't need to be protected from images of sex. They need to protected, in the way of honest information, from sexually transmitted diseases, unintended pregnancy, etc...
