I never participated in the World Naked Bike Ride. I think this is a wacky and no efficient way to allert to a clean and healthy environment! However if someone wants to support a body positivity theory, and decide to bare it all, maybe that works.

I will cheer on who is able to support clean and healthy environment!

I think that participate in the World Naked Bike Ride is a good way to claim against enviromental pollution. It’s funny and goofy. I think that this movement was with clothes, and not naked, nobody put attention on them. Whatever if everybody bares it all for a good cause, the eyes of a lot of judgmental people will not be able to unsee, and the mass media will report about it.
