public nudity
Clothes-free in streets
Public nudity is the state of being unclothed in places where others can see—streets, parks, beaches, shops.
Most jurisdictions regulate it, though laws vary widely: some ban any exposure of genitals, others permit toplessness or designate clothing-optional areas.
