The British have been more up for it than the Americans were, particularly with respect to nudity in the show. In Europe there are adverts that show the breasts, so people are less frightened of that aspect of the show. Americans can withstand incredible violence on TV shows - which, as I come from England and Canada, I find difficult to stomach - but they are more puritanical when it comes to nudity on screen.

Summary

This quote suggests that British audiences are more accepting of nudity in television shows compared to American audiences. The speaker believes that Europe, including the UK, is more open to displaying nude content in advertisements, making British viewers less apprehensive about nudity in television. Conversely, Americans are depicted as being more tolerant of violence on television but less accepting of nudity. The speaker, being from England and Canada, expresses their difficulty in comprehending this dichotomy and highlights the contrasting attitudes towards nudity between the two countries.
