I don't think it will ever fly in this country, with the "puritan" crowd becoming stronger in influence.

There is Baker's beach here, in San Francisco, that is on federal property. Its well known for people sun worshiping in the nude, however, I don't think I would feel comfortable there or anywhere in the States.


People, here have been brought up to suppress their natural sexuality and because of that, all kinds of abhorrent behavior can happen.

I never had people leer at me in Tahiti, but I am pretty sure it would happen here. Nor, do I want to be hit on every five minutes, while at the beach. (Our beaches here in SF are not the best, as it is. Much better in Sol~Cal, from Goletea down south. Like Ventura is fantastic.)

I just don't really trust my fellow Americans...enough to want to lay on a Beach here in California, or anywhere else in the USA for that matter. I guess its more a feeling..(Besides, I don't need to tan..and now adays its not that healthy either, I am sure.)

I believe people should be able to lay in the Sun naked if they want to, but to do so may be asking for trouble, or at least, some annoyance. I just know I would never do so here. I have also been to Cannes, France and seen the beaches there, lovey as they are, and for the people there its no big deal.

We live in a country when someone's nipple slips out infront of the cameras, people freak out for days...screaming and yelling.. So, no thanks, its not for me.
