Zoe Saldana, who opines that more women are needed in the strong superhero roles, has pointed out the double standard existing in Hollywood when it comes to male and female nudity.

The 36-year-old actress said in an interview that it is okay for women to bare their breasts or show butt cracks within the confines of a PG-13 movie, but, if a guy's penis is shown, the movie earns an R-rating, E! Online reported.

The pregnant 'Guardians of the Galaxy' star added that it is not exactly balanced if the gals alone are required to show skin for a movie, while the guys remain covered up.

Saldana, who thinks people have got to neutralize the nudity across the genders, continued with a laugh that females need love scenes where they get to see penises as opposed to just the female character flashing some skin.
