I fell in love with a Video Nasty

Yeah but if you're that kind of American then this show is already going to offend you, which is why I find it specifically strange that they would bother with fake dicks. It's as weird to me, as someone who is not afraid of dicks, as it would be if films and shows had topless women wear prosthetic breasts that looked just like their normal breasts (though maybe larger).

Every once in a while they do in fact use prosthetic breasts, usually because the actress last minute got shy. Body doubles are more common, but not always used. There's a really weird bit that was obvious to me early on in the 2009 Friday the 13th film where an actress who takes off her top is obviously wearing a chest prosthetic and it really doesn't look like a real chest at all. It instead ends up looking like those renaissance paintings where the artist used a male model as his reference when drawing a woman, and then just pasted vaguely boob shaped bags to the chest in the piece.

They generally don't show vaginas either, just fuzzy merkin bikinis. We get boobs, but de-sexualizing boobs a bit and letting women go topless is a good thing so lets not complain about that part.

They don't show vaginas at all honestly so there's actually more explicit male nudity on premium cable than there is female these days

Pretty sure this did not happen.

They use fake genitals for consistency and because they film better. Trying to blame it on puritanical America is dumb because it's what literally everyone does, the lesbian sex scene in Blue Is the Warmest Color also used fake labias.

I was under the impression that was mostly because the girls in that movie are very young?

I can think of dozens of films that have shown real vaginas and dicks, so "literally everyone" does not muck about.

Harvey Keitel's dick was on full display in The Piano, and that was over 20 years ago and that movie played everywhere. There was some controversy, but... it was 20 years ago

Not to mention a rather artistic representation of ejaculation.
