Minnesota: It is illegal to sleep naked.  Ripleys Believe It Or Not! 2006   

 

 

There’s one thing you do every day in the privacy in your home but you never dream of doing in front of strangers: get undressed.  So what’s stopping you?  Horizon: What’s the Problem With Nudity? BBC 2009

  

So would you strip in front of strangers?  ibid.
