Re: “maternal nudity” in the film “babies:” I went to my favorite site
“screenit.com” which I use to preview every movie my sons want to see before
they see it in the theater or renting. 

The following list of “sex/nudity” might seem a little too detailed, almost
laughable that it includes “mari’s shirtless father” and “mari’s mom shows a
little cleavage” but the site always includes  a VERY comprehensive  list of
EVERY single instance of many categories, including smoking, violence, blood
gore, drug/alcohol use, weapons, profanity, etc. 

That the examples of “sex/nudity” in the movie include bare breasts,
breastfeeding, naked baby

butts, etc, I’m sure is not meant to imply that bare breasts or
breastfeeding are a bad thing, but rather to give an objective detailed list
upon which parents can make decisions.

I like that “How the cultural nudity (bare-breasted women in Namibia) is
accepted, while the same isn't true in most Western countries” is included
as a “topic to talk about.” I WISH a “topic to talk about” was that
“breastfeeding is  the biologically normal way to feed babies but many women
do not breastfeed their babies” (which, in my dream world, would inspire
gasps and exclamations of “WHY in the world not?!? What is wrong with
them?!?”)
