hmm... OK, I'll enter.
So - if you are being so focused on the (relatively) few frames of film that have nudity in them, and declaring that unless they have a purpose within the story, that they are "unneeded", than you MUST therefore put the same kind of attention to other scenes that are in movies traditionally.

What are some typical things seen in many movies that a typical audience-goer is interested in seeing?

Hmmm.. how bout long, establishing landscape scnes - they don't HAVE to be there, and they seldom actually DO anything in the story, so you should object to those.

How about smoking? It's usualy not a story-point, so object to any character that is shown lighting up or smoking onscreen.

How about car chases, or even most action scenes? Most of them don't advance the plot - they are simply there to give the audience member a visceral, visual excitement.

Same as nudity.
