Nudity still in at Seattle parks


KING5.com Staff

excerpt-
SEATTLE - When it comes to public nudity, Seattle may be the most liberal city in the country, but a number of organized, naked bike rides prompted the parks department to reconsider nudity on beaches and city parks.

But Thursday night, the city's parks board refused to ban non-offensive public nudity despite some complaints from the public.

Nude events will therefore likely continue in the future, although perhaps under tighter scrutiny.
--
Naked bike rides are a Seattle tradition. In Seattle it's illegal to flash someone, but perfectly legal to run around nude and police officers take action only if a nudist is lewd or obscene.
