If your goal as a parent is to avoid getting pestered with questions, I'll take the boob --- it's only going to generate 1 or 2 questions, not 50.

Nudity is not an issue at all. We just make sure that the correct terminology is used to identify everything.
Sex as presented on "entertainment" TV\Media is not appropriate for my kids at their current age.
Sex as presented on documentaries\research\learning while still not appropriate for their age would turn into a learning opportunity on human anatomy and how things work. Not really a big deal in my book, but I would much rather wait awhile longer for that discussion.
No question is unwelcome in our house (though there are some my wife prefers I answer)
