It is because we live in a warrior culture that glorifies male domination. Nudity and sex imply vulnerability and female power. (which is why nip-slips at football halftime shows seem so threatening).

The interesting thing is that frontal male nudity is the greatest taboo outside porn... It suggests male vulnerability, and opens up the idea of objectification of men.

What does a warrior culture have to do with male domination? You know very little of history if you think warrior culture is unique to the male.
I never said that all warrior cultures are male dominated... just this one.
