– Why in many countries nudity or even sex are more taboo than violence and gore?

Answer 1

Puritanical sexual mores combined with military propaganda. People get inundated with violent imagery so they see destruction of human bodies as normal. People learn to think of nudity as purely sexual and performative, and dissociate from their own bodies as well.

I personally find it upsetting, but that’s possibly to do with being European. I have begun to avoid American movies for this reason.
