Different countries have different approaches to what is deemed 'acceptable', with continental Europe seemingly fairly liberal about nudity but wanting to clamp down hard on excessive violence, whereas the US seems fine about explosions, gunfire and death on a massive scale that sex and nudity is a big 'no-no'.

In terms of protecting children (the old phrase wheeled out whenever there is a contentious issue), I think seeing someone blown to bits [albeit faked) is going to be more harmful than seeing a woman's breasts!
