Summary

The article discusses the history and legality of public nudity in San Francisco, starting from the absence of public nudity laws in the early 20th century to the controversial passage of a nudity ban known as the Weiner Bill in 2012. The ban resulted in fines for violating the law and sparked legal battles and numerous protests from nudist activists.
