It seems to me that 'violence is OK but sex is not' seems to be pretty common in many religions amd societies.

In the middle east, you see news footage of people walking around with guns strapped to their back, but the women have their face covered.

In North America you can watch TV and see a person shot and murdered (and if it is CSI, a freaky CGI rendering of the bullet entering the body and bouncing around), but if Janet Jackson pops a nipple for a second suddenly with sky is falling.
