SAN FRANCISCO (Reuters) - Two dozen pro-nudity activists wearing little but their righteous indignation assembled on the steps of San Francisco City Hall on Wednesday to protest a proposed municipal ban on public nakedness.

"Nudophobic bigotry has now taken root here in San Francisco," Rusty Mills, 69, stripped down to his tanned birthday suit, told his fellow demonstrators as they stood in the sunshine of an unseasonably warm, 70-degree Fahrenheit (21-degree Celsius) fall day.

On the way back to City Hall, elementary school children playing on a schoolyard gawked and pointed at the naked demonstrators.
Supervisor Scott Wiener introduced the proposal to curb undressing after residents complained about a daily gathering of naked men in Jane Warner Plaza, a square in the Castro District. He called the lawsuit a baseless "publicity stunt."

"A lot of people who live in the neighborhood are just sick of the fact that seven days a week there are men taking their pants off and displaying their genitals on our sidewalks and plaza," he added.
Under the proposed law, which critics dubbed the "Wiener bill," nudity would still be allowed at permitted parades, fairs and festivals, as well as on designated nude beaches.

Okay....this HAS TO BE satire.........
“But the thing you don’t realize is that there’s good naked and bad naked”
No one wants to see your naked body and laugh.
By the way... the left one is cancerous.
Where’s the normal people’s right of not having to endure the unnecessary suffering of seeing old hippies walking around naked?
LOL!
It’s an axiom—those who fight to shed clothes SHOULD be wearing clothes!
Funny how the ones we really don’t want to see sans clothing, are the ones who want to bare it all.
Most people who wish to go nude in public are the last people on Earth who should be allowed to do so.

They showed up at the San Francisco Occupy protests too...marching right down Market street....and none of them were Jewish.
As predicted by me five years ago. This is why it does no good to retreat from an issue and declare defeat. You never get rid of an issue...they push more. Just as acceptance of open gayness in the military has not removed gay issues, legal abortion has not taken that issue off the table, etc.
NUDO-PHOBIC ?!. . . Bwa Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha!!!!
What next?!?!!!
Whose rights prevail in this situation?
Their “right” to nudity, or my “right” to not be offended/disgusted when I go downtown?
Someday your children will ask you how you could have lived in a society where nudophobia was so rampant.
/s
GO FOR IT!
Let the rest of the population see how much they will enjoy sitting down on the bus seat after you
My thughts exactly. It’s NEVER the ripped, gorgeous types. It’s always the ones who don’t have anyone who WANTS to see them naked who feel compelled to MAKE others see them. It’s a real narcissistic fetish. The best thing to do is LAUGH! Point and laugh.
