It's even very chilly this week here in Florida 'the Sunshine State' so the thought of stripping off is quite daunting right now, let alone parading naked in the streets. But that however is exactly what they are planning to do this coming Saturday in San Francisco (where else!) Their very enlightened City Council has given a Permit and a full Police escort to the Nude Love Parade!
San Francisco's leading proponent of full-frontal nudity, Taub, and the Parade's organizer writes on her site, My Naked Truth TV: "Please join us the day before Valentine’s to celebrate love in its purest, most natural form! Let’s remind the City of San Francisco that love knows no bounds and obeys no rules. Let’s remind everyone that we are only here today because our parents got naked and made love, that we were all born naked and that we are always naked underneath our clothes. The more we hide from our true selves the more separated we become from ourselves and from each other. True love knows no judgement, no hate, no separation! True self love means accepting yourself fully just the way you are, true self love means being completely free from shame in all its forms including body shame.”

The parade Valentine's Nude Parade will start at Jane Warner Plaza at noon, will march to the City Hall and return back to Jane Warner Plaza. The final word is from the Organizers who plead "Drop the pretense! Drop your pants (or skirts)! Take it off and join our parade! Get fully naked or as bare as you dare!"
