Wrong, they can be dressed however they like.

I'll give you 30 minutes tops of success after which you'll end up in the local PD. There's a dress code norm nowadays' society has imposed and they won't let you break it. On a gay parade you may walk totally naked and nobody would say anything to you but that's a special event and everyone on it has the right to dress or undress the way they like. But outside that event you'll have to face the consequences. In fact I just found some proof for you to understand that these natives would most probaby spend 24 hours (or longer) in the PD because of indecent dressing.

Quote:If you are in your private home it is not an issue.These quotes are one year old and I seriously doubt these laws have change so quickly. See for yourself: http://www.justanswer.com/australian-law...ralia.html
Backyard will depend on whether you can be seen by your neighbours and whether they complain. It is not a criminal offence but if they complain they can get an order form the court that you stop.
Outdoors and in public other than nude beaches it is a criminal offence and all states have their own laws.
It all comes under the Crimes act and it is an act of indecency.
As I mentioned the laws are antiqued. Yes public nudity without invoking your cultural rights might not be strictly allowed, but you could certainly argue your case. The worst that could possibly happen is you would be directed to cover-up. What the letter of the law says and how it is applied are two entirely different things. Case in point: the letter of the law in NSW still says you need a marshal to walk 100 yards ahead of you when driving an auto-mobile.

"That's disgusting. There were clean athletes out there that have had their whole careers ruined by people like Lance Armstrong who just bended thoughts to fit their circumstances. He didn't look up cheating because he wanted to stop, he wanted to justify what he was doing and to keep that continuing on." - Nicole Cooke
