Your fear of genital touching and family nudity is at odds with child rearing. I can only speak from my own experience- but I've had to teach my children to wash their genitals. If one of them gets a sore or finds something interesting on their genitals I am asked to look at it. I'm trying to teach my son how to pee standing up. and on and on and on It is OK to touch your child's genitals (imo)in ways that are culturally appropriate and consistent with care giving and not for your own sexual gratification. I am not familiar with all cultures, and cultural traditions- but this Cuban thing doesn't seem like abuse to me. If it does to you, that's your opinion- but YOU saw abuse in a perfectly innocuous car commercial about a man with his daughter, and YOU see it in bathing with one's children nude (in Japan they have nude communal baths, you know, and many cultures are much more into nudity than Americans)- so for me, your opinions are suspect.
