  If nudity was legal I would definitely do more naked than I do now especially work around the house and yard along with traveling nude to other places that didn't mind

  If there were no fear of legal penalty, I would only wear clothes for personal protection from weather and/or working with flying debris. I wouldn't care what others thought.

  I don't wear a lot of clothes out now. Normally just shorts and a shirt or just shorts. If nudity was legal and accepted, I might find myself wearing a sarong so that I could be covered if necessary, but also easy to remove for comfort.

  If only we could have a world like that.

  If legal with absolutely no loopholes wed be as God intended almost all the time here in Texas. Nudity used to be commonplace in society and we think it should be again.

  May I suggest that those in the UK who do not think that it is legal to be naked outside or who think that the police and CPS do not know that look on the British Naturism web site (bn.org.uk). You will find the following links :

Its long been a gray area as to where and when we can be legally nude in public in the UK, it varies to some degree in the different countries that make up the UK too. But the clarification of this issue should help make it clearer where we can be naked, and hopefully the wider population will also realise that we are legally allowed to be naked in many situations. Talking to nudist friends not that many of them seem aware of the current situation. A lot of the initial work was done by the Naturist Action Group, British Naturism got on board later but don't seem to want to acknoledge the earlier work and in their recent publicity about the clarification make no mention of other groups that worked on the matter, seemingly to claim all the credit. I'm not saying that BN don't deserve some credit, but making it look like they were the only body fighting our corner is not good when its not true. As to the question about would I be nude in more places if it were legal, yes I would. We've long used public beaches for nudism, 'official' and 'unofficial' beaches. We've hiked nude for a number of years too. We've known what our rights were to be nude publicly but been cautious about forcing our nudity on others, not walking naked along roads or when passing peoples' homes. I've walked nude in the countryside since the legal clarification with an organised group, the respect when passing homes continues but we've not covered up at the sight of someone in the distance. Being nude in a town centre would probably still be an issue, I'm not going to walk around naked today, or tomorrow, the laws still indicate that this is not acceptable generally. But I will be nude in public more since its been possible to carry a piece of paper stating that the law recognises our right to be nude should I meet anyone, including police, who questions that right.

  [... But most people, including the police, don't know that...

  The police do know that, the College of Police have circulated the law clarification to all police forces to make sure that they do know what the law says.
