If you assume that all women are Victorian-era pearl-clutching girls for whom anything remotely sexual is scandalous, it makes a lot more sense.
The subtext is "women must be shielded from the world".
On the other hand, for people who have actually met women raised, say, post-1940, it's pretty bizarre.
