I have no doubt that in places like Iran, the mullahs would like to ban broadcast of such events...

But IMO it isn't REALLY about "protecting" the men from lustful thoughts. It is about preventing the WOMEN from having independent thoughts.

Note, that their male dominated culture deals with their men's self control issues by restricting the activities of women...

I would not be surprised at all that the olympics television programs are heavily edited in such places.
