Daring but Safe? Is it possible?
I always have trouble coming up with daring things to do. My career would be greatly hindered if I got slapped with a public indecency charge so I avoid doing anything that might get me caught. I know that kind of defeats the purpose of a dare, but do you have any suggestions? The most daring thing I have done is run around the outside of my house at midnight in the snow. Even then, I had been drinking and we live in a single wide mobile home so it was not very long. Any suggestions?
There is a clothing optional campground I go to in the summer. My husband and I have hosted nude parties. I've been nude when clothed friends were over. Not quite sure what else to do without breaking any laws.
I would do some soul searching about why "daring" is so appealing if the risk of job loss or diminished social status is so great. Nudism is about enjoyment of being without clothes. I know how liberating it can feel so that you want to experience it more broadly but you may be edging into some titillation bordering on exhibitionism. Careful!
Enjoy the fact that you have friends you can share nude time with. A lot of folks don't have that.
True enough. I know that my current job is only in the field because I work in a Counseling office but I'm just the receptionist right now. I am a couple years away from getting my license and the work I do now is the opposite of fulfilling. This is why I am looking for other jobs but in the meantime I try to find excitement and fulfillment out of other areas of my life.
As for the original question, I'm happy with there things are right now in regard to nudity, especially since it's winter right now. I was more posing the question of what is considered "daring" and whether people can be daring while still following the law. All the other posts seem to talk about public nudity in non-nude situations and that's not a possibility in the Midwest.
It depends where you are. In England, Scotland and Wales, UK it is not illegal to be naked in public. And the police are advised not to take action. So it is safe. The same applies in several European countries. However it is still daring to go around naked in non-CO places. Being legal and being socially acceptable are two very different things. I have had some negative reactions but they are far outweighed by the positive reactions (usually amusement and usually from women).

Just another reason my husband and I want to move to Wales. It's a beautiful country and we wouldn't break the law for being naked. In Iowa, I could even get in trouble in my own house if someone saw me naked and I didn't do everything I could to prevent that from happening (I. E. Curtains, privacy glass, etc.)
In most jurisdictions in the US, the nudity laws are tied to the sale of alcohol; namely spirits.
Indecent Exposure charges are often mis-used. As the letter of the law is tied to sexual behavior. And the intent to shock or draw attention. All of which are often tested. And as long as the exposure of ones genitalia as only for sex and bathing!, we will not get over this hurdle.
Im always looking for a dare and to push that envelope.
About workmany employers do background checks on employees. I understand the concern.

Is this really the case? Stephen Gough, the Naked Rambler, attempted to hike the length of Great Britain naked and was arrested over 20 times. He spent most of 9 years in prison from 2006-2015. He has been described as a prisoner of conscience. He never ever hurt anyone. Only the unbending stubbornness of the establishment. The people who rode in the WNBR should've all highlighted the ludicrous injustices against him in protest.

The naked rambler didn't have any problems while in England but the trouble started in Scotland where they had different laws over nudity and that where the problem started and when you get a judge who hates someone standing up against him/her they think they are above the law. Yes now the law has been confirmed that non sexual nudity is legal in England and Wales during 2018 but has Scotland decided to up date their laws to be the same as the rest of the country yet as they were been worked on.
Naturism is now officially regarded as legal in Scotland according to the official BN guidance which can be downloaded here.
Legal or not, there are people who do it, including beaches and highland walking and don't seem to have any proplems.
