Because Soccer Moms fail at logic
To be fair, Soccer Moms want violence gone, too.
I'm not saying I agree with them, but the stance of "Think of the children" is at least fairly level on those two issues. They will attack sex first because it's the easier target, but we've seen a lot of pushes against violence of late, too. In fact, it almost seems we're becoming more permissive in sexual content while pushing against most violence.
Not much, but still.
Sex also has a pretty widespread effect and is significantly easier to "commit," so I could sort of see the argument. I disagree, though. I'd rather see children exposed to sex than violence. And by exposed, I do
not mean subjected. Kids probably shouldn't be watching porn or violence, anyway.
In terms of nudity alone, I hate how prudish we are about it. The human body is a subject of shame and scandal.
