That’s sexual though. When I said, “have no problem or less problems with nudity”, I meant non-sexual nudity.
They almost certainly have less problems with non-sexual nudity. There is discrimination against tattoos, for example. I’m unsure how being transgender would work, but I’d imagine that is another area of discrimination and exclusion.
European countries do generally allow nude sunbathing and have bathing culture. I wasn’t just talking about Japan.
I can’t attest to the accuracy of the map, but it has to be at least somewhat accurate. I don’t think it’s correct on Japan, as you say. Take it with a grain of salt.
Japan is prudish and repressed in many ways, sure, but they do see the practicality of being nude when you have a reason to be nude (e.g. bathing). Hot springs are a social activity and generally individuals are very comfortable (at least) with being nude with the same sex.
Oh, and there is weight-based shaming and other forms of discrimination/racism there. There are issues and it’s fair to point them out.

The only place you can be publicly nude in Japan is bath houses.

Damn china really isn’t beating the “less cool than Vietnam” accusations
