A molester can tell her it's anything, but if she shown, she may know that it's "bad".

But I agree with DS82, it depends on the individuals.
Your co-worker needs her head checked - I agree with the post that girls never need to see their fathers naked and women should avoid it with young boys as much as possible - I hate when folks brag about bathing with their young children - nothing that comes off of an adult's filthy body needs to float in a tub with a child. Not to mention that there is far more to molestation than sexual penetration and whether a young girl has seen a penis before or not isn't how the perpetrator gets their mental submission - and a penis may not be the "molestation tool" for lack of a better term.
