The Race For The Middle Ground
Just noticed that my last two posts at Beachlaw were about San Onofre State Beach here in California abandoning its clothing optional policy, and a city pool in southern Utah being pressured to abandon its ban on bikinis and speedos. Aside from academic interest due to an article I’ve been trying to write for forever about the different approaches to legislative drafting of silly dresscode ordinances, I’m just terrified to think that Southern California and Southern Utah might actually be of one mind on such an issue, even though they’re racing to the center from such different extremes.
It might be a stretch to compare Kanab, UT allowing bellybuttons to San Onofre allowing everything.
Kanab! That’s where my parents-in-law are. Completely see how they might draft that original ordinance. Perhaps So. Utah and So. CA can get together and create a unified acceptable bathing suit?
Well, the difference of opinion seems to be narrowed down to the thong. I wonder how hard SoCal would fight for the right to wear dental floss.
