If I were playing by myself and saw a random cock dangling on my screen, I would have a reaction and feel flustered.

You're missing something big: it's NOT a surprise. Literally the first thing that happens when you open the game for the first time is it asks you if you want to enable nudity. You have to answer that question before you even get to the main menu.

"Show Nudity" is still very vague. For any other videogame, it'd mean at best some nipples. The instance of full frontal in any media is extremely rare, hence the reactions are still justified. It would be a surprise, yes.

If you're bothered by any kind of nudity, just say no when you're asked if you want nudity. It's really not complicated. It sounds like the only way to satisfy you is for the game to offer the exact amount of nudity you're comfortable with and not a bit more.
