I think a mandated National Nude Day would see a lot of empty streets and a lot of folk staying home. Women, especially pretty women, would feel very vulnerable walking around with everyone being able to see their stuff. Many people hate their bodies or don't like them very much and I don't think it's anyone's business to force a confrontation with that very personal thing. Too much of a culture shock
