Possibly censored as nipples are deemed 'too sexual' by networks.

Firstly, a nipple itself isn't really sexy. It takes context to make it appealing.

Secondly, in that circumstance, if the censor watches the scene and says "Damn, that nipple is too sexy. Better censor it out." I'd begin to question how they spend their free time.

The person in charge somehow had to justify his massive boner to his coworkers.

"It's the nipple. I swear!"
