White House Request for Clothes-Elective Regions
More clothing-optional places - It is puttered along for a few weeks and AANR has set their stamp of approval on it. Now it's just over 2,500 signatures of the 100,000 needed. With only two weeks to go, it doesn't appear like it will meet it's target. Some may see this as an indicator of the downfall of naturism or that naturists have serious privacy concerns, making them scared to death of actually putting a signature on anything. I've a slightly different stance.
Initially, only 5,000 signatures were needed for the White House to issue a reply. Immediately after launch, the number jumped to 25,000 and now it's 100,000. Even with the amount of signatures needed ever increasing, reaching the aim does not guarantee an official statement. The White House is simply cherry-picking what they deem appropriate and will get them the most press. Even if this petition for more clothing-optional outdoor spaces does reach its aim and the White House decides it as among their significant problems, there is no indicator that the reply will actually address the issue or be serious by any means.

Another thing to mention is that there now aren't any federal laws against casual, non-sexual nudity. All the laws on record have now been made firmly by the states. https://s3.amazonaws.com/ff-naturist/nudism.html of the request is that every national park and forest would quarter off sections for clothing-optional use. After that, who dictates where these clothes-optional places are? Or how about the back of any cave occupied by a grizzly bear? Sure, they're clothing-optional also. Now, with authorities sanctioned clothing-optional places all over the place, there would need certainly to be means to command all the naked people from wondering out of the designated areas. It wouldn't be long before a federal law was signed, making all non sexual nudity prohibited. By taking this to the national level, there's the possibility of it backfiring, because there is actually nothing to legalize.
Do not get https://s3.amazonaws.com/ff-naturist/beach-babes.html , I 've nothing against a world with more nudie areas. It would be amazing if I turned out to be erroneous, and the petition ended up receiving an official, favorable reply from your White House. FKK did post about the request on Facebook and Twitter. Gaining acceptance of the human body is what it is all about. But as it pertains to social nudity, I don't feel that creating small clothing-optional zones is the response, and by utilizing the government's "We The People" web site, with its fiddling responses and lack-luster track record, does not help with the credibility of the cause.
It should be noted that the Naturist Action Committee issued an advisory responding to the petition (link below). Rather than urge nudist beaches to sign, NAC essentially said they leave it up to the individual to decide whether to sign it.
