Teen/college comedies with LOTS of nudity: Is the genre gone forever?

I thought I'd take a new spin on a thread someone else started below. Is it just me, or do teen/college/sex comedies since, say, 1999 or 2004 hardly ever have any nudity, or when they do it's no more than 2 or 3 brief topless flashes or a few butts?

I just got through watching Adam and Eve (NO topless shots), Remember the Daze (NO topless shots), and Senior Skip Day (2 BRIEF topless shots). The first American Pie had just Shannon Elizabeth really and that was it (not that 2 minutes of her isn't worth 3 hours at any strip joint :) ). Did 2 and 3 even HAVE any topless shots?

I mean back in the day you had Revenge of the Nerds, The Beach Girls, Hardbodies, I'm drawing a blank but this type of comedy back in the mid-80s was usually good for 7 to 10 topless shots at LEAST, especially if the movie was rated R!

Is there a change in the genre or am I just watching all the wrong movies?

P.S. Adam and Eve was actually, at least in my opinion, a pretty good movie, and Senior Skip Day was "okay". Remember the Daze was pathetic. Just didn't want anyone to think they were all bad movies, just that I wanted to see "more" of those hot girls.

The second Harold and Kumar movie had lots of bush. Copious amounts in fact. Way more than ROTN

If they brought them back perhaps it would satisfy people and we wouldn't have to have seven minutes of tits to disguise whenever any dialog is happening in Game of Thrones.

I think with pornography of any description so easily accessable on the internet these days; riske nudity in films is a bit redundant.

It's not redundant if it's funny. Now comedies rely on every bodily fluid except those related to sex. And I absolutely loathe bathroom humor.

I grew up in the '80s. I think the subgenre was known as the "teen sex comedy".

Even real nudity isn't that great any more. All the bushes are gone! Bring back the BUSH! WE WANT BUSH!!
