Summary
In the early 1970s, nudists in California pursued legal rights for nude sunbathing, resulting in the establishment of legal nude areas at some beaches. However, the efforts were met with opposition and legal challenges, leading to the eventual prohibition of nude beaches in Los Angeles County despite continued efforts by nudist groups.
