In reply to the discussion: Public nudity ban eyed in fed-up San Francisco [View all]AsahinaKimi
(20,776 posts)I frankly, don't get how anyone can go without clothing in this city. Its not like the tropics here. In fact with cold damp moist chilly fog, it makes it down right cold in the Summer and the Winter it rains a lot. It got to the point the city had to ban people from using their fireplaces for heating, as it spewed lots of junk into the air. But you have to know, that if people are using their fire places to stay warm, its gotta be cold enough to want to have clothes on.
Someone once pointed out to me the difference between people from Northern California and Southern California. It was the color clothes they wore, they said... Northern Californians tend to wear darker clothing, lots of sweatshirts and sweaters in grey, brown, black and Navy Blue.. where as, in Southern California people wore White, yellows, reds, orange and bright colors.
I wear a sweater nearly every day of the year when I go out..or at least bring one. You learn to bring clothing with you as you may take things off or put things on as the day goes about...
Also to note, those years I worked at Fisherman's Wharf, the hottest selling items were Sweat Hoodies.. because people came thinking our climate was like FLORIDA... its not, and as I type this... I have my space heater on.
Its crazy to go naked outside in this city.
