Anti-nude law KOd by Fla. court

DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. - Let's get naked!

A federal judge struck down Daytona Beach's anti-nudity laws, saying they're unconstitutional.

Regulations prohibiting public nudity and nudity in places that sell alcohol violate the First and 14th amendments' protections of free speech and equal protection, the judge decided.

Daytona Beach also failed to prove its claim that adult nightclubs create secondary negative impacts on levels of crime, prostitution and illegal drug activity in neighborhoods, the judge wrote.

"We won on every single issue," said Daniel Aaronson, a lawyer representing Lollipops Gentleman's Club in its federal lawsuit.

Public nudity has been an issue at some Daytona Beach gatherings, such as Biketoberfest and Spring Break.

City officials said they're considering an appeal.

Very true about Key West. I've not been down there since I retired, but when I did go down and work, I could sit at the hotel bar and women would be sitting there but only topless.

Just one more indication that Florida is very different from many other places. If I'm not mistaken, Florida is the only state that permits nude public beaches. I know they exist elsewhere but in Florida some beaches are officially designated for nudity. I don't think that's true anywhere else. In Key West there are public outdoor bars that are clothing optional, so you can sit on a bar stool surrounded by nude sunbathers. Just one more reason I like to go there.
