How Naked Is Too Naked?

Spokane voters may soon decide how naked is too naked. Three Spokane residents appear to have succeeded in gathering the signatures they need to place an initiative on the November ballot asking voters to create a misdemeanor public exposure law. “We’re just moms and community members,” said Beth Solscheid, one of the three women leading the signature gathering effort. “We got plenty of negative reactions, but for the most part we felt we got mostly positive responses.” Their proposal was sparked by the proliferation of coffee stands with female baristas working nearly naked – clad in only G-strings and pasties/Jonathan Brunt, SR.

Question: How would you vote on the public exposure law, if you lived in Spokane?
