I very much agree with you, but I'm not sure the concept easily translates to online media.

I've gone to nudist waterparks since I was 14, and my mother sometimes took me to the sauna at an even younger age, so basically grew up with non-sexualised nudity. But it took some social feedback to learn it, like learning the difference between looking and staring.

That last aspect is lost when it comes to streaming or videos. There is nothing preventing you from sexualising any nudity on screen.
