Default Simple nudity does not equal sex (even if voyeurs are aroused)

1Michael - if you and your wife are going to a WNBR (as a participant or spectator) for an erotic thrill, then I think you will be disappointed. I think you have mis-classified WNBR as an "adult event".

Nude bike rides are NOT sexual situations. They are to bring attention to and promote cleaner and more Earth-friendly modes of transportation.
Gnome72141 - almost all the nude participants would agree with you, as well as the spectators who bring their children.

Perhaps those who erotically enjoy WNBR photographic voyeurism on a porn site imagine that WNBR participants must therefore be erotic exhibitionists.

The context of nudity, or clothing, matters for erotic response. The context of going to a porn site and then looking at naturist and WNBR pictures on the internet can be erotic because it is voyeuristic. The context of part of Fantasy Fest is intentionally erotic exhibitionism. The context of WNBR protesting, in the way that most of the naked participants are, is generally not erotic eg very few erections among the naked riders. There is probably more arousal among the men who have made a special effort to attend and photograph as voyeurs. WNBR protesters are "exhibitionist" in the attention-seeking way that all clothed protesters are, but most are not sexual exhibitionists in the way that many Fantasy Fest participants are. OK, there are a few possible WNBR erotic exhibitionists like "scaffold man", but they are the exception not the rule.

If simple nudity was the most erotic thing, then there would be no billion dollar lingerie industry. Fantasy Fest and other adult events seem to have more lingerie and "playwear" than full nudity.
