About splicing images of pornography into family films

Does Pitt/Norton's character who does that even have an awareness that it might cause him to lose the job or get into trouble with authorities etc?
Also - not this is a bit of a personal question but...
The movie showed at least some audiences being upset and offended by male nudity portrayed and spliced into family-themed films.
If the same image was that of a nude female instead, and let's say the woman looked good etc, would audiences as such have a similar or even SAME kind of upset reaction as they would with male nudity? And is it normal, and why or why not? Regardless of the gender of the audience in the cinema theatre?

I had to laugh, but I can't fault the logic!
Almost all of us have been exposed to breasts from a young age as a warm and reassuring presence (regardless of our sex), which probably removes the horror of seeing them on screen. That's my only theory for the apparent hypocrisy about nudity among the sexes.

This film is gross when you realize the person recommending this film to you is a girl.
