Answer 1

When nudity became not something you see every day. Though there are still many cultures today, in Africa or Indonesia, for example, where tribesmen walk around naked all the time and nobody cares.

Another analogy would be that it’s like with butchering cattle and fowl. City dwellers can’t stomach seeing it, but in the countryside it’s everyday life and people are used to it.
