Hypothetically, could this save Americas health crisis?

If lawmakers told Americans that public nudity would be made legal only if obesity rates declined from 40% to 5%. 🧐

My city actually tried allowing public nudity, with specific restrictions, about 15 years ago. I remember guys on EP joked about moving here, imagining beautiful naked women everywhere.

I can state definitively that the typical nude people I encountered were male and 50+, without "beach" bodies. Might’ve been the reason that as quickly as the nude statute was established, it was hastily repealed…

@bijouxbroussard Haha! I generally support allowing public nudity so long as hygiene is maintained. That's my primary concern. But if you have to carry a towel around to use public seating you may as well wear clothing at that point. "Ugly" bodies wouldn't bother me. We don't require people with "ugly" faces to wear masks.

I think the problem really does lay with the guys who sexualize nudity. It would be hoped that over time people got used to it and it wouldn't be titillating because it wouldn't be special or associated with sex. But that normalization window is really long and leaves way too much opportunity for people to be victimized along the way. So it's a rough subject. I give your city credit for the attempt though.
