Western culture? Can you name the countries where full nudity is acceptable in public?
There are only a handful of countries in the world where being naked in public is tolerated, and they're all in northern Europe (which, last time I checked, was part of Western culture). In fact, Germany, etc. have recently become
less accepting of public nudity due to immigration from countries where people are much more socially conservative.
Covering the genitals with clothing once puberty hits is a human universal, found in every culture that anthropologists know about. That taboo has only recently been overturned, and only among some people in a handful of Western countries.
So you've pretty much got it backwards.
