Moral panic... But did anyone... Anyone at ALL... Bring evidence that any actual harm came to a single youth from these events? I highly doubt it. You would have heard nothing BUT. It's so tiring for hypotheticals to rule instead of evidence and practicality.

Being from the horrible state of Wisconsin and a naturist for 37 years. I'd like to comment. I think Wisconsin has bigger and better things to worry about than whether people are engaging in a nude (non-sexual) bike ride or any other nude event. Did you know Wisconsin has the weakest drunk driving laws in the nation? How about we strengthen those laws rather than worrying about someone being naked or not. When was last time someone was harmed or killed by a naturist? When was the last time someone was killed or hurt by a drunk driver or repeat drunk driver? Everyday! BOY do I HATE this state!

I am so tired of hearing "think of the children" innocent nudity, why is everyone afraid of that?

Well, letโ€™s see what the Governor does and then letโ€™s see how far the influence of the laws reaches the other states. Iโ€™m betting that other states will adopt similar laws now that they know they will face no serious opposition. If you give an inch they take a mile.

There are so many tentacles in this that are connected both to who this bill will touch and other legislation already enacted, I find it mind-boggling. However, I would like to say that I would love to give birth in a public place in Wisconsin and have someone come and charge me for exposing my genitals. ๐Ÿ–•

There are literally more men stopping to urinate on the roadside than there are naturists. (Sorry guys, I would include women, but this isn't very convenient for us.) I hope the highway patrol brings their cameras with them.

Even President Helen Lovejoy wouldn't think of the children this much.

Panic is never moral.

The GOP doesn't seem to have any interest in maintaining local control over local policies if it doesn't follow what the MAGA crowd wants.

Once again, adults think for children! Children have absolutely no problem with nudity. All you have to do is spend a day with a family on a naturist campsite to realize that living together naked is beneficial to a much more balanced life.

As one comment put it: "Perpetrators of child abuse or assault are much more likely to be non-nudists" It's true, it's clothes that bring us problems, not the other way round. (ใƒ„)

I don't know how anyone can still have any respect at all for the Republican party. All they want to do is stop people from having fun. I can tell you this, I'm making it out to a WNBR this year, come hell or high water, because pretty soon, they'll be outlawed across the country. Mark my words. The Cotton Curtain is closing around us.
