That reminds me of the interview with the guys from Mainframe Studios, the makers of Reboot, in Wired back in the day.In some of the Pokemon leaks there were documents with various stuff Nintendo of America or Europe requested of Game Freak as far as changing character designs, and one thing was them them demanding Game Freak give Iris (12 year old girl who acts like kind of a feral child) shoes because her going around barefoot is too sexual. So yes, this is what the sort of the people who censor games and act as consultants actually believe.
The list of things ABC Children's Programming Standards and Practices wouldn't allow, and the reasons for most of them, were absolutely insane and perverse. One great example was they couldn't mention hockey, because the word "hockey" was some old southern euphemism for sex. They also had to cut out Dot kissing her little brother Enzo on the forehead, because S&P felt that was incestuous.
