> Should we forbid children to go to the pool because sexual creeps might go there ?

It's significant easier to hone your creepiness when you have an endless supply of training-material. It might even help you to discover this side of you in the first place.

> On the other hand in many places of Northern europe nudity is more common even in public.

Not with children. Even in Europe parents are generally quite protective with them. And here the topic of family-influencer and sexualization of their children is also a hot topic.

I have seen naked toddlers in European swimming pools/lakes.

Toddlers are infants, not children. There is different awareness according to their abilities and demands.

In the US, toddlers are toddlers, infants are infants. Both toddlers and infants are children.

In the late 90s I was startled by a billboard in Germany which featured a dozenish naked boys, standing shoulder to shoulder and bearing all for the camera. It was an ad for a telecom, if I recall. Some of them had pubic hair, some were too young for that. Reading up on the legality of public nudity in Germany, I wonder if this would still fly today.
