Sure about that?

California Penal Code Sec. 314. “Every person who willfully and lewdly, either: 1. Exposes his person, or the private parts thereof, in any public place, or in any place where there are present other persons to be o ended or annoyed thereby; or, 2. Procures, counsels, or assists any person so to expose himself or take part in any model artist exhibition, or to make any other exhibition of himself to public view, or the view of any number of persons, such as is o ensive to decency, or is adapted to excite to vicious or lewd thoughts or acts, is guilty of a misdemeanor.” California Jury Instructions -- Criminal. CALJIC 16.220 -- Indecent exposure. “In order to prove this crime, each of the following elements must be proved: [1] A person intentionally exposed [his] [her] [person] [private parts] [in a public place] [, or] [in any place where there were present other persons to be o ended or annoyed]; AND [2] That person did so with the speci c intent to direct public attention to [his] [her] genitals for the purpose of [his] [her] own sexual arousal or grati - cation, or that of another, or of sexually insulting or o ending others.” On [2], public attention to the anus, anal area, buttocks, pubic hair or a women’s breast(s) are not to be considered in proving this crime.

States and municipalities can twist that. Depending on the seemingly innocuous circumstances it's just a double charge away from being put on a list. I'm just sayin'...
