nudity deemed legal

2000-10-29 23:43:15+01 by Dan Lyke 0 comments

How many times must we fight these battles? Nudism magazines deemed not obscene: The three-judge panel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit unanimously reversed December's decision by a federal judge in New Jersey, who concluded the magazines Jeunes et Naturels and Jung und Frei violated federal law against importing obscene materials. Now I agree that sometimes nudist publications are an attempt to give a veneer of respectability to the super-uptight, but doesn't that pretty much automagically make them artistic expression?
