It's a cultural taboo that they are taught later.

I didn't say anyuthing about what kids have a problem with.  It was the
right of parents that I addressed.  It is not up to me to make the decision
for them.

Unfortunately, that's not the case in this country.  By far, the majority of
the nudity we are exposed to or have access to is pornography.  Other, more
natural instances of nudity are not nearly as obvious.  Right or wrong,
that's how it has been and, to a very large extend, still is.
