but i do not think nudity any less offensive than a bikini, and that no less offensive than a trench coat. Why restrict speech, artwork, and clothing preference in our country... when we can swear in gibberish, paint classically or abstractly, and our natural form is nude?

I would agree with you on this.

People should be free to do whatever they want to do.

I would say most people who don't like nudity or sex would take it offensive seeing nude pictures.
Children shouldn't see nudity or sex or anything like that until they are old enough.

But I on the other hand like nude art work

But why is it good to prevent children from seeing? If you hide something from someone, and they discover that there is something there, then it creates a forbidden-fruit type of curiosity to find out.

Well yes, their curiosity is what drives them to learn new things! But there are somethings, that they shouldn't know such as S&M, or anything similiar.

'Sex' Although it seems redundant after nudity, it is a valid question in itself. Why do we censor the act we are built to participate in? I see nothing wrong with it, and question why others do. It is as natural a process as eating and drinking, yet we censor sex... and not eating as well. Why? Why should we censor something that the vast majority of us wish to participate in as much as eating, yet we do not censor the food we eat?

You may see nothing wrong with it, but someone else might find it offensive, like someone who dosen't like sex.

Oh yes it is something that a vast majority of us wish to participate in, and I would say people like doing it.

Would not children be less vulnerable if they had experience of these things?

Because their kids! They should have fun and go the park and be kids! To see sex and nudity at a young age would be bad.
