"Nudity" means the showing of the human male or female genitals, pubic area or buttocks with less than a full opaque covering, or the showing of the female breast with less than a full opaque covering of any portion thereof below the top of the nipple, or the depiction of covered male genitals in a discernibly turgid state. "Sexual conduct" means acts of masturbation, homosexuality, sexual intercourse, or physical contact with a person's clothed or unclothed genitals, pubic area, buttocks or, if such person be a female, breast. "Sexual excitement" means the condition of human male or female genitals when in a state of sexual stimulation or arousal. "Sado-masochistic abuse" means flagellation or torture by or upon a person clad in undergarments, a mask or bizarre costume, or the condition of being fettered, bound or otherwise physically restrained on the part of one so clothed.

Seems like there's ample opportunity for interpretation here, depending on who is observing the "crime" and who is "committing" it. If a straight dude wearing tight pants walks around with a hard on because he just got fondled by his lady friend, he could be arrested. If a straight woman wears too revealing a tank top, same. If two lesbians are kissing-- off to the clink! Two gay men kissing and embracing-- the hoosgow for you! I wonder which of those four are most likely to result in an arrest? THINK OF THE CHILDREN!!!!

So you agree that this doesn't single out the LGBTQ community, it applies to everyone? So the OP is purposefully lying, yet your reaction isn't towards the leftist lying with the soul intent to falsely show that conservative hate gay people, it's about that the law is ambiguous?
