While in my last post I suggested to try to make North 40 Natural Area a naturist-friendly park of New York City, there is a group of naturist activists that is trying to bring body freedom to the city where public nudity was legal until February, San Francisco. It is outrageous that laws banning nudity are being passed in the 21st century, and in San Francisco, out of all places. I know how these silly laws are enforced on my own experience after getting a fine for doing yoga naked in a park in San Francisco. Even if for some reason you think it is not acceptable (unnatural???) not to wear clothes in public, just look at the video from this group’s latest protest and think if this ban doesn’t violate freedom of speech, so cherished in the USA.
Luckily, there are such people who don’t give up, and I wish they had more support from naturist community, as well as anyone who wants to keep our society as free and accepting as possible. You can read more at their website, as well as donate them @ www.MyNakedTruth.tv
Here is also information about their upcoming demonstrations:
SUNDAY, DECEMBER 15 @ 12 NOON – JANE WARNER PLAZA – NUDITY BAN PROTEST
Please, join us for another protest against the nudity ban at the Jane Warner Plaza. An award winning Norwegian documentary film maker Jan Dalchow will be filming the protest for his documentary film “The Naked Dream”. His crew will be flying in from Norway to document the body freedom movement of San Francisco. We would love to see you there. Please come and be part of the documentary!
In case of rain the protest will be held at the Sex and Culture Center at 1349 Mission St, San Francisco, CA 94103.
THURSDAY, DECEMBER 19 @ 12 NOON – SAN FRANCISCO CITY HALL – NAKED WEDDING – GYPSY TAUB AND JAYMZ SMITH will get married naked in front of the City Hall. We will also have a protest/march/parade after the ceremony.
Active Naturists 
the naked in wedding in San Francisco went great, congratulations to Gypsy and Jaymz!

Hi and sorry for my bad english; I’m an old french man who at school did’nt learn well enough his english lessons.
In one hand, thanks so much for all these very interesting naturist reports; because of them, I improve my english, yes, yes. In the other hand, I found this particular report wonderful, sensitive and heart-rending. Unfortunatly, one year ago, I watched on video a meeting in favor of nudity in Frisco and seeing the crowd attitude sometimes obscene, I was afraid the law appears against that.
kind and naturist regards

Hey Bro — this sucks — it was one of he last cities in te USA that allowed public nudity- funny I was there in October and saw no one naked on the streets — must have been too cold out.. Are they at least keep some of the beaches legal to be naked? At least we have some place to go….

well, now it’s illegal to be naked on the streets, but OK at some beaches apparently… like the Baker beach that I wrote about.

Yes I was at Baker Beach when I was there in October but it was way too cold to get naked and no one else was either– LOL !!! I wish there where more places near NYC– not a lot at all– Is there anything going on in NYC for a Happy Nude Year? Mine is sitting in the living room a block in a half away from Times Square (naked of coarse)…. 😉

Why do they do this in the middle of December? Wouldn’t they get more support In warmer weather? When the outdoor temperatures are more comfortable and more conducive to nudity? Especially this year, while the whole country is experiencing an especially cold December.

they do it throughout the year. In San Francisco, it actually doesn’t matter that much, because the weather is almost the same year round.
