Yes, but that is because there is a power imbalance at play here. It makes sence to avoid such situations to prevent sexual violence in institutions.
You can normalise beeing naked without shame beeing involved and keep children safe in a situation that could be potentialy abused. In my opinion that’s not mutually exclusive.
Ironically not making parts of our body a taboo best not even to talk about is what helps children speak out if they have been molestered. Same with knowing what is appropriate and what not. Sex-Ed is just so important to prevent sexual violence against children. Which is, just to make the clear, still not their responsibility. It’s just something that helps a lot, you still need systems of protection in institutions.
I hate the cultural cliche where everyone is expected to act like male nudity is horrifying and dangerous.
I think it’s pretty weird in the situation where you’re standing in front of a couple of children.
Only because you’re from a culture that thinks it’s weird. Pretty common in parts of Europe and elsewhere.
I’m from the UK. I grew up with communal changing rooms and showers at school, but the P.E. teacher would still be in trouble if he got naked with us.

/rant I guess.
If we wanted to be like Europe culture, we wouldn’t have whooped Europe’s ass.
Europe, the land of one (1) culture.
What does that even mean?
