This isnt true. Children pick up queues from their parents and those around them. Parents might not explicitly prompt their children but children pick up how their parents act and react about nudity and genetalia. I dont think theres even any debate on this in the realm of psychology and the develpoment of sexuality in children. As a parent its important to know how you act impacts your kids. You can Google this yourself and easily find academic research on the topic.
