📄 Template: Petition to Legalise Clothing-Optional Spaces
Purpose:
To gather community support for the formal legalisation or designation of clothing-optional areas (such as beaches, parks, or trails), ensuring body freedom, safety, and clear regulation.
📢 Template Text (Public-Facing Version for Signatures)
Petition Title:
✅ Support the Legal Recognition of Clothing-Optional Spaces in [Region]
To the [City Council / Local Government / State Authority / Minister for Environment or Justice]:
We, the undersigned residents and supporters, respectfully request that [insert region/city] formally recognise and designate safe, regulated, clothing-optional public spaces for use by individuals, families, and groups who wish to engage in non-sexual, respectful naturist activities.
Clothing-optional spaces are common in many countries across Europe, New Zealand, and parts of the United States. They promote:
Body acceptance and mental health
Outdoor activity and nature appreciation
Freedom of choice and personal expression
Tourism and local economic opportunity
Social equality and respect for diversity
We ask that the government:
Identify and legally designate appropriate public spaces (such as beaches, trails, or parks) where clothing-optional recreation is permitted.
Ensure these areas are clearly marked and respectful of surrounding land use.
Support education and signage to inform all users of the space's clothing-optional status, respectful conduct expectations, and non-sexual context.
Provide legal protection for law-abiding naturists using these areas.
There is a growing community of naturists, tourists, and citizens who simply wish to enjoy nature without shame or fear of criminalisation. Clear legal designation will benefit everyone by removing ambiguity, preventing conflict, and protecting public decency without suppressing body freedom.
We call on the [insert government body] to act now and show leadership on this issue of liberty, equality, and sustainable recreation.
Sincerely,
The Undersigned
