The basics of this article is that now in San Francisco it is against the law to be nude in certain public places. Well quite frankly I didn't realize that the law permitted that before considering where I live I have never encountered a nude person on the street. (Unless of course we are talking about a baby holding his/her own diaper in the air screaming "FREEDOM!") Anyway, I digress way too much. So after this law was passed, a bunch of nudist came out and decided to protest. They claim that it wasn't that fact that this law was being passed that bothered them, it was the way the law was written. Now it states that when a nudists goes out and about, in restaurants and such, they must place a towel or something underneath them. These nudists were offended by this part because they claim it is "basic nudist etiquette" to do such. Honestly, I find this whole mess crazy, people should not be nude in public. I find nudists communities fine, but otherwise I just can't deal with it. Maybe it is my upbringing, but I accept that.
I feel that I am always saying how important this is but, knowing what is going on in the world is crucial. This is newsworthy, but it is really entertaining too. I would have never known that San Francisco was so liberal. One of the nudists that protested had actually ran for mayor at one time. This article kind of just makes me happy I live in Montvale, where nudists cannot roam free.
Nude Protest, Literally.
