Standards for nudity of children and adults are cultural. An native tribe that runs naked most of the time isn't going to think twice about nudity. In our culture, where people are normally clothed, and religion pollutes the atmosphere with sexual prohibitions which result in a morbid curiosity over matters sexual, the nudity of a child, and especially a young adolescent, can cause impure thoughts in even relatively "healthy" individuals. I'm willing to bet that many males who wouldn't dream of actually having sex with an underage girl still got a bit of a rush watching Natalie Portman in The Professional or Beautiful Girls (where I believe Roger Ebert described Portman as the most naturally sexy of all the girls in the movie, even if she was only about 15 at the time).
