ok, so i'm late to the party--if you're already heard about / or are familiar with this...
the other day, online, i stumbled across this 'recent tradition' of public, nude rugby matches in new zealand where, since 2004 a team of dudes play rugby--nude, outdoors in public (no less), and in the 2011 video of a match i caught online, the nude dudes played against clothed women.
here's the fact that i can't get over: this rugby match is played outdoors in the open, in public, in new zealand and there are kids present in the crowd. clothed women tackling nude men in public with kids standing by watching. it's just a bit jarring to see when you discover it for the first time....it's not obvious that kids are present--the camera is following the rugby action. but every once in awhile, the camera will pan over and you'll see kids as spectators. generally, the atmosphere is non-sexual. and they attempt to make it kind of globetrotter-ish with a little comedy like: having clothed streakers interrupt the match, etc.
one year during this 'recent tradition' of nude rugby, a local girl in her 20s named rachel scott joined the nude men's rugby team for a match and she played along as the only female and naked. again, kids are in the crowd watching.
it's unclear if there's been any matches recently or later than 2016. you can find rachel scott being praised and admired online for her bravery. she's not bad looking at all.
the rugby matches appear pretty solid. i mean, folks were playing with some enthusiasm.
here's a 30-minute video if you're wondering. NSFW. this is probably one of the better, clearer videos out there of this 2011 match between the new zealand rugby team called 'new blacks' for some reason and their clothed female opponents from spain called the 'conquistadores' or something. later during that match, the female opponents strip down to their bikini-like outfits.

there are also still-pictures of their matches that you can find online.
