Now, if I wanted to get conspiratorial here, I could say that the 1930's was the heyday of the American communist party and the radical left, and we all know about their agenda regarding public art and decency. Hmmm....

Oh please. I guess nudes are a sign of communism, which means communism has been around from Michaelangelo's time.

Was the Mona Lisa a nude?

Some hot chicks are painted on the walls of caves in Lascaux, France.

A few filthy communists must have painted them 13,000 years ago, boobs and all.

Next, they will want to paint swimming suits on the Sistine Chapel ceiling. Wait for a thread entitled "Vatican Promotes Nudity".

Seriously, I am not a prude by any means, but I do not understand the mentality of someone who goes through all the work and trouble of creating a statue, and then deliberately decides to make it naked. Why? You have to wonder what is going on in such a mind. Do they secretly get off knowing that it will be in a very public place and that children will be viewing it? You seriously have to wonder these things. I can't even begin to understand.
