texas, california and florida agree on something
Lock me up.
I used to go outside at like 2 or 3am for a sprint around my backyard nude a few times when I was like a teenager.
But Texas is advertised as "you can do all you want" or "it is the land of freedom bro"...

Just wear a hat.
I think "being nude" is similar to "being honest". You reveal what's inside you without any kind of concealing mask.
Really, the US not wanting people to be nude at any cost makes me think that the US does not want the people to think honest thoughts either.
I want to hear a strong eastern Massachusetts accent say,
“It is the duty as a citizen of these Commonwealth and State of Massachusetts to hereby decree the fundamental illegality of being in the nude per the confines of an individuals backyard. Whether visible or not to neighbors and or the greater public, it is the sworn duty to uphold any type of nudity outside the home or establishment that is permitted to allow a visible display of said nudeness to persons of an age that is either 18 or 21. Furthermore any attempts to show any nakedly graphic pictures of the human anatomical form sans articles of clothing to be a direct affront to the values deemed appropriate by the officials Oveh theh in Baustin.
The land of the free-ish*
* Several restrictions may apply, consult your personal lawyer for legal details. You may be subject to a incarceration without trial for an extended period of time during your legal process, or be subject to a modern flavor of slavery once convicted. A medical injury and receiving a higher education may generate debt for several decades that requires years of work at a minimum wage that barely covers your rent and groceries and may require you to get a second job to survive. You may suffer delusions of grandiose or uniqueness, or a feeling of unjustified pride for wearing star-spangled underwear every 4th of July. Keep out of the reach of children who may be subject to religious and far right indoctrination, perpetuating the cycle of freedumb-ish.
They should all be green. Whether it’s a good idea is a different question.
I do like the fact that it's authorised in Hawaii but prohibited in Alaska.

Can you watch ultra-violent movies with profanity and scantily clad men and women?
- all green.
People are weird.
Movie ratings are kinda bullshit anyway.
Airport, one of the movies Airplane! spoofs, features an almost explicit scene of a suicide bombing aboard an airliner in flight. A pregnant woman is injured in the explosion, and a plane load of people spend the entire third act in immediate mortal danger. This movie is rated G.
Ice Age, the Disney (somehow not Pixar) movie whose plot boils down to "Three Men And A Baby, Except Animals" is rated PG for "Mild Peril."
Raiders of the Lost Ark features explicit scenes of people being shot including blood flowing from a bullet hole, and the climax of the film features a shot of three characters' faces melting. This movie is also PG.
Caddyshack is a comedy movie about wacky characters around a golf course. A couple women get topless, so this movie is rated R.
The MPAA has been a rather corrupt organization for a very long time. They don't even bother following their own standards. They also exercise leverage over film content. Many movies live or die by their rating, so "parent's" groups often lobby them or find their way onto the various boards to exert their will and censor content.
The one that comes to mind for me there is Army of Darkness. Army of Darkness came out in 1992 and is rated R. Why? Its content is similar to a lot of PG-13 movies, including Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, which came out 3 years earlier. Army of Darkness is appropriate for the same audience as Indiana Jones. It's rated R because it's a sequel to Evil Dead.
Saving Private Ryan features some pretty realistic scenes of combat wounds. Not 10 minutes in, we get a shot of a man's guts hanging out of his torso while he's calling for his mama. That movie came out in 1998 and is rated R. Showgirls came out in 1995, and is rated NC-17 because it's a skinemax movie. This isn't an original thought by any means, but...are those backwards? Why are we more comfortable showing children war than sex?
I mean you're comparing movies that are 22 years apart and for entirely different demographics. It's to be expected that the criteria changes based on how cultural norms change.
What stands out to me is that they got more strict as time went on and depending on who the target demographic is.
It's funny that movies intended for kids had much higher standards than movies intended for adults.
I think MPAA/RIAA censorship it peaked in the early 2000's and since then those agencies have become increasingly irrelevant.
Raiders of the Lost Ark being PG is a bad (or good depending on your perspective) example, because the sequel (Temple of Doom) was one of the main reasons the PG-13 rating was created.

Why does the live free or die state always have less liberal laws than its Vermont neighbour?
They chose death 🤷♂️

I'm in Arkansas and I have a 6-foot-fenced yard, highest my neighborhood will allow. I straight up called the police department and asked them - if someone complains I am nude, in a non-sexual way, what would happen? They laughed and said they wouldn't even bother issuing a warning. So YMMV :)

Going nude in your backyard in November in Oregon sounds like a standard thing. We got naked bike rides so, yeah, this checks.
Seattle also allows nudity in public! We also do a big naked bike ride every summer solstice!

I imagine Alaska being red is more about dying from the cold than the law.
