AN OUTSPOKEN nudist suggests the \"sleazy elements\" that visit nude beaches would be eradicated if clothes-optional beaches became legal in Queensland. <\/p>\n
Rocky Ind, a full-time nudist who organised the recent Alexandria Bay Beach Carnival, said legalising nude beaches - like Noosa's Alexandria Bay - would give genuine nudists the authority to evict the creeps. <\/p>\n
\"Everywhere they've put legalised nude beaches, it becomes self-policing, it gets rid of the sleazy element,\" Mr Ind said. <\/p>\n
\"Anywhere that becomes nude, well then they've got something to say to those who are not doing the right thing.\" <\/p>\n
Mr Ind's expert input follows two recent incidents on Sunshine Coast beaches. <\/p>\n
In the first, a lone female jogger was approached on Noosa's A-Bay beach by a male nudist who shoved a camera into her hands and asked her to take his photo. In the second incident, a nude man approached three teen beachgoers last week at Coolum's Second Bay. <\/p>\n
\"My opinion of these people, and the opinion of the vast majority of the nudists in Australia, is that these people are not genuine nudists,\" Mr Ind said. <\/p>\n
\"People in the nude should be avoiding those people, not out there on display, in your face, as it were. <\/p>\n
\"The incidents of this sort of behaviour is just about zero in legalised nude beaches; you don't get that sort of interaction.\" <\/p>\n
