Other cultures can handle sexuality better.

Which ones? And how do they do that?

In my personal experience, the Scandinavian cultures do it better by simply not making a big deal out of it.

When you teach all your children from a young age that nudity is naughty and sexuality doesn't exist, you shouldn't be surprised when they grow up ill equipped to handle such things maturely.

I am from Scandinavia and that's not really true. We like naked females as much as everybody else and will do as many stupid things to get them. What we don't have is a bunch of extremely religious people with power so the contrast makes it seem more easy going.

Fair enough. Still a huge improvement though if you ask me ;)
