I'll suppose I'll put it in the same basket as why does american media show violent acts on the news, but seems to be so strict on nudity on tv?

I guess its just one of those cultural differences, you all need to take the aussie attitude and not give a damn

My thoughts exactly. I've always been bemused by these inconsistencies with my American freinds.
