In Illinois it is not generally a violation to be nude in public. BUT, every locality had an ordinance some how limiting or banning public nudity and, the catchall violation is Disorderly Conduct. For example, the beaches in Chicago are subject to a local city ordinances banning public nudity. It is a fine only offence but refuse to comply and get ready for a trip to the station. Indecent exposure state law has a an element of he offense, lewd conduct for sexual arousal or gratification. So unless you are doing somethin which is obviously sexual, you are not in violation. Remember, police can still ask you to cover up, and unless you are willing to challenge them in court you should obey. Illinois State Beach used to tolerate nudity however they now have a local rule banning nudity.

    [quote]It would be nice if some farmer that is in to nudist activities would host small groups on the farm.[/quote] Two people on other sites noted that they at one time worked and lived on farms where nudity was required. One even said that if the owner saw one the workers clothed and he wasn't arriving or leaving. the worker was told to strip immediately and give the owner what he was wearing or pack up and leave. If the worker chose to strip so he could stay, the owner destroyed all the clothing he had been wearing at the time!
