Australian state does not like bare butts and they cannot lie

Post by Roofus »

Exposing your bare buttocks in public has been officially made a crime in the Australian state of Victoria.
Known as mooning, the cheeky offence was previously punishable under other laws but is now banned under specific legislation.
First-time offenders face up to two months in jail while repeat offenders could spend six months behind bars.
The amendment was one of more than 50 crimes included in an overhaul of sexual offence laws.
The updated legislation has been designed, in part, to separate pranks involving nudity from acts of sexual exposure.
The Summary Offences Act states that "behaviour that is indecent offensive or insulting includes behaviour that involves a person exposing (to any extent) the person's anal or genital region".
It specifically cites "mooning or streaking" as an example of such an offence.
The act also outlaws singing "an obscene song or ballad" and behaving in a "riotous, indecent, offensive or insulting manner".

The article I saw yesterday made me think it might be for the best judging by the picture they used:

Are there still nude beaches? Because if there aren't then that makes New Jersey more European than Australia.

I only went to NJ twice in my 30 years because it sucks so I stuck with New York and Pennsylvania when I wanted to leave Maryland/Virginia/DC. So check with Snookie since she's been to both.
