Nudist Tips A woman standing on a street corner
breast feeding her child may be awarded more leniency by the law than a woman
stripping for money on the opposite corner. Many states and commonwealths within
the United States don't have laws specifically prohibiting public nudity. If an
arrest is made of an individual or individuals who are nude in public it's
usually under misdemeanor nuisance laws such as disturbing the peace, impeding a
public right-of-way, things like that.
But is nudity freedom of speech and thus protected by the First Amendment?
If the nudity is the only way to express a certain concept or idea or viewpoint,
yes, most likely it would be considered protected speech under the First
Amendment. Or if the person "speaking" by nudity had no other means of
expression, yes, most likely it would be considered protected speech under the
First Amendment. Factors such as the location where the nudity took place, who
witnessed the nudity (those who expected to see such a display or those who
would have likely not expected such a display in the given setting) would come
into play as well in a court decision, but likely a case could be made for the
viewpoint expressed or the necessity of the method used, that is, being nude to
make one's point.
LEGAL
NOTE:
The naturist photo and video documentaries that we offer are legal in every city, every state and every county inside the United States. They are protected by the First Amendment and are not subject to local obscenity laws or ordinances. The depiction of adults and children nude in the visual media has enjoyed constitutional protection in the United States since 1958, when the Supreme Court vacated a Court of Appeals finding that Sunshine& Health magazine could be obscene (Sunshine Book Co. v. Summerfield, Postmaster General, 355 U.S. 372). The right to depict adults and children in innocent nude poses has been upheld without a pause for 41 years. In case after case, the Supreme Court and lower courts have always upheld the constitutionality of "nudity without more," specifically referring to the nudist depiction as a fully constitutional form of expression. Our website is widely visited in all of Asia, Europe, South America, Canada, Australia and Africa. The only exception may be countries where nudity of any kind is banned.
