I don't want to put words in your mouth, so correct me if I'm wrong: You're
position is that the current ordinance is objectively wrong because it enforces
a certain relativistic cultural norm (hereafter known as RCN)?
I imagine you've got a good idea of what a proper nudity ordinance would look
like. Why is your version objectively right, and not just an enforcement of
another RCN?
