Hopefully with a little forethought on the part of the law makers the concept of nudity as a wholesome part of the human condition will once again be accepted for what it is and must be. Commentary by Dr. George R. Harker. Your comments and reactions are solicited. The Act which went into effect in May 1995 is entitled Brevard County Public Nudity Ordinance. These people were out to stamp out public nudity in any form with some interesting exceptions.
Most people have a pretty good idea of what constitutes nudity.
If you are not dressed you are naked. Apparently the commonly held public definition is not sufficient for those in Brevard who apparently are out to develop their own language. For purposes of this definition, body paint, body dye, a tattoo, latex, or any similar substances shall not be considered an opaque covering. If you are interested in the legal aspects of recreational nudity I strongly recommend the book by Gordon Gill entitled Recreational Nudity and the Law.
