In September 2011, nudists gathered to protest a proposed law that would put some restrictions on public nudity in San Francisco. The law would prevent nudity in restaurants and require naked people to sit on a towel or other covering, when sitting on benches or other public seats. Scott Wiener introduced the law in response to an increase of nudity in public places and restaurants.[1]
