In the USSN, clothing is entirely optional. Anything else would be tyranny.

Nudity is illegal in public.

Besides, in most of the GWO, going nude could possibly get you frostbite (in the winter) or hypothermia.

In Sebastianalandia, nudity is in a grey area. It's pretty much legal, but not totally. Young, athletic people are encouraged to, ehm, 'show off' their bodies.

However, morbidly obese people (amongst others) are often given a set of clothes and asked to go home by the police.

Kandarinese culture does not have any taboos against nudity. This revelation would probably be a surprise to most foreigners who have visited, since naked Kandarinese are such a rare sight. Despite the fact that nobody would bat an eye at anyone appearing nude in public, very few actually do it. This is so for a variety of factors. For one, it's fairly cold in the underworld, and it gets cold at times in most surface areas as well. It's also dangerous in many areas, and so most prefer to be protected and equipped in some way. On the aesthetic side, while Kandari are generally quite a good-looking lot, most prefer to express themselves visually through creativity in clothing rather than skin.

Finally, the central reason why so few people go nude in spite of the above factors is precisely the same as the reason why it is allowed - there are no taboos against nudity in Kandarinese culture. It's not novel, it's not shocking or rebellious, and nudity on its own is not especially fetishized. Even if you are very beautiful, you will not get much more or less attention by being nude. And so while it's perfectly acceptable to choose the no-clothing option as one's public attire (and most Kandarinese have at least tried it out at some point) very few decide to stick to it as their long-term look.
I wish I remember who wrote:Games like Nationstates are like a big cardboard box, and there are two kinds of people in the world. The kind who look at the empty void inside the box and ask "Where the hell is it?" and the kind who jump into the box with their friends and make it into a fort, or a spaceship.

Public Nudity is legal, but only rarely happens in Aedyddia, as it does get rather cold here.

Clothing is required in public, however this is not due to laws (although some colonies do have mandatory and slightly archaic "obscenity" laws), but also harsh weather conditions. Most planets colonised by the Technocracy are either sub-Arctic ice balls, nuclear wastelands or sand-blasted desert worlds. The few that aren't, however, are either extremely heavily polluted or so covered in hostile wildlife that going outside naked, without so much as a respiratory mask, is akin to suicide. That said, clothing is entirely optional in one's home.

Urgolon is technically clothing-optional (except for children not yet potty-trained and people like chefs), but social pressure pressures most people(except for those mentioned above) into wearing nothing but shoes, hats, and accessories.

Public nudity is prevalent in our society, at least when it's not winter time, or you don't live in one of many mountain ranges. Your choice, really, not anyone else's, especially the state's.

Well, nudity is allowed, but Grandfather doesn't really like it. He says that we should wear clothes.

Our clothes are basically black tunics + trousers, and a black cloak. No others are sold, and non-government industry is banned, so there is no opportunity of any others being sold. We're happy with them anyway.

Public nudity for all of the several sexes (Yes males, females, masculine females, feminine males, transgendered, etc.) that exist in our nation is allowed. I don't understand though why the creator of this issue has it that women are only allowed to be as such at their home though.

Only areas with special government permits may public nudity be displayed legally. The majority of these places tend to be nude beaches, of which there are very few of. Despite this, being clothed in ones home is not neccessary as long as no one can see you from another property.

If we lose touch with our nature, then we lose touch with our humanity. Yes, we are indeed animals, and that fact should be celebrated rather than repressed.

In other words, public nudity is perfectly legal in New Olwe. It's not done as much as one might think, largely because it's bloody difficult to find a safe place to put your sword, but naked people are a common enough sight and all of the public beaches are nude.

There are no national laws against public nudity as it is considered to be a matter to be regulated by local governments.

In general, the government and people are very liberal in matters concerning the body and sexuality...BUT...

Most governments have laws against public nudity, and even in places where such laws technically do not exist it is generally unheard of to see a naked person simply walking through the streets.

There are, however, a fair share of nudist beaches, camp sites, and even a few parks in urban areas where nude sunbathing takes place.

Legally? we have no laws governing the wearing or not wearing of clothing, it's never been an issue, so technically we are a clothing optional society

In Practicality however, we are Mountain Valley, it's tepid in the Summer, and balls ass cold in the winter, you rarely see people naked, except in bathhouses and indoor pools and the like. it's just to damm cold to walk down the street naked.

Nudity is legal in Meridiani Planum, though culturally is only practiced in certain contexts, such as when in a recreational area designated for that purpose. Wearing clothing at other times is a sign of respect for others, and is also a form of self-expression.

Public nudity is accepted and common in aprox. 24% of the country. The majority of citizens are anthropomorphic and adhere to a code which has been observed for centuries allowing for public nudity. However Public nudity in major urban areas is strictly prohibited.
