Serious question: why doesn’t free speech in America include public nudity?

Cuz nobody wants to look at your junk, OP.

I think public nudity is legal in San Francisco…Is that right?

If one likes to garden:

Too many fat people.

Too many prudes. I think even public sex should be legal, but I admit I'm in the extreme minority on that

It's mostly to protect the children. Kids don't want to see cox n balls and neither tits nor beaver.

Skid. Marks. Tiny. Meat.

OP - Americans love it when a semi-automatic machine gun blows a child's head off in a classroom or a female is violently raped and horrifically beaten to death in a movie. Americans heartily support those kinds of occurrences.

However, Americans don't love it when they are forced to look at a penis. They collapse in a wailing, shrieking heap because it's literally the end of the world to them.

The rights of nudists is the last bastion of legal discrimination.

Let's fight back!

It does, if you do it right.

9 out of 10 people are not attractive naked. The world is ugly enough, adding to the ugliness should remain against the law.

Sunscreen is too expensive.

I don't know about other states, but Oregon has a huge number of strip clubs precisely because the state constitution has a very broad definition of free speech and Oregon courts have found that stripping is ok under Oregon's constitution.

But no, nobody wants to see you naked at the supermarket.

Or sitting in a restaurant bare ass on the seat.

The Children, Oh think about the Children

R8. Speaks for all Americans.

I believe children are our future... unless we find a way to stop them!!

Because most people, including OP, don't actually understand what "free speech" is.

Blame the Pilgrams.

I have been to Europe dozens of times. I have also been to Asia a number of times. What I have never seen in all these many decades is any nude people walking the streets, or taking public transportation in any of these countries. Surprisingly even in the Netherlands people wear clothes.

As far as public nudity goes it’s like being back home in the US

There is public nudity in Germany. People strip down in parks in the middle of major cities.

R21 do those German park goers then jump on the trams or walk home while nude?

The US is such a puritanical shithole. Red meat or white meat? Cannot say breast or leg.

*All* because of your ugly body, OP. *You're* why we can't have nice things.

[quote]r23 = Cannot say breast or leg.

Like we can't say Merry Christmas?

Yes I can watch actors fuck during my fav tv shows and I can see her snatch or his dick but R23 has a TV where breast and leg is used because the US is such a prude country.

America was founded by extremist protestant cults and their specific ideas are still popular even with nose ringed gen z's in crop tops. We have always been and will always be a country that views sex as a dangerous and dark act of shame and violence.

IT DOES, as a form of protest

In philadelphia we have an annual naked bike ride, a ride on bikes to promote bike awareness on the streets of philly. It’s fun, but a form of protest registered with the city hall

They do; you don’t.

The members of the FFA feel left out of this conversation but they feel that all acts should be OK in public if it’s a political or celebratory act.

OP here. I don’t think you all understood what I’m trying to say here. I’m not saying that everyone should be walking around naked at all times and riding the bus naked and going to work naked. I’m simply saying that I find it strange that Americans find nudity more offensive than racism. The human body is more offensive to the average American than the Klan.

And to R5, in most modern western countries aside from the US, sex in public is only an issue if it’s in plain view. Otherwise, no one really cares. In fact, in Germany, sex in public is legal as long as you’re covered up with a blanket or something.

70% of the US population is overweight to obese. It’s bad enough to see fat women walking around in crop tops and leggings or shirtless old men with their DD cups walking around in the summer. I can’t imagine watching them walking around butt ass naked or fucking in public.

Call me a prude, I don’t care. No thanks!

R31 No, the Klan is offensive. “Wet Ass Pussy” was a #1 single in the US. It was #12 in Germany.

Americans are not that uptight.

R33

I’m sure that’s why in California, one of the most liberal states in the US, public nudity will get you on the sex offender registry for life.
