If ever there has been a time to call for an emergency naked bike ride, this is it.

Remember male folk you can't be arrested (anyplace I know of anyway) for wearing a speedo and conservatives hate it.

depends on the state for women too iirc

[–] neclimdul@lemmy.world 4 points 23 hours ago

Check your local laws too. State might be legal, the city might not. For example in Texas it is often illegal or restricted under local ordinances.

Red being "ambiguous" and blue being "no" is certainly a choice

[–] QuinnyCoded@sh.itjust.works 8 points 20 hours ago

one of the decisions of all time

[–] Cocodapuf@lemmy.world 7 points 1 day ago

Yeah, I had a similar thought. I mean nothing is set in stone with color coding, but there are some pretty clear norms.

I lived in Seattle for a while and got used to the nudity, imagine my sadness moving to Arkansas which bans any public nudity "within view" of the opposite sex (hello gay campgrounds) - but last year I saw a lesbian go topless at Pride and I was SO happy! My straight neighbor made it a point to mention how she didn't care for that, and I'm like, it's our event lady, don't come.

But we don't have good healthcare here... at least wear sunblock and knee/elbow pads and a helmet.

Quck question, how uncomfortable is it to ride a bike while naked? Sounds pretty awful. Any accidental castrations?

If your balls hang low enough to be caught in the chain, you should always tape them up. Otherwise, just keep the seat lubed and it’s not a bad ride.

Just in case ICE comes to kidnap everyone, it would be nice if the bystanders wore extra clothes they could lend the nakies because it's cold in the KKKamps
