Anuj Desai, a University of Wisconsin-Madison law professor who specializes in issues including free speech and statutory interpretation, agreed that those laws probably don’t apply to organizers or people responsible for children participating in the Naked Bike Ride.
“If the whole point (of the Naked Bike Ride) is that bodies are not sexual items, it’s not likely to satisfy a legal standard that requires it to be appealing to the prurient interest of children,” Desai said.
