Well, I'll type real slow. It's kind of like someone insisting on smoking a foul smelling cigar in a small public place. What they do in their own places is their business... and if it is publicized sufficiently and I don't have to deal with it... MAYBE an art museum is workable.
But the conventions of our society tell us that polite company is kept with our clothes on... most people just don't look good enough to get away with it. And, we have enough people imposing themselves on people around them. If their purpose is just to destroy conventions... who cares what they want anyway?

Ok, I'll bite: What made you think those people care if you see them unclothed or not? My guess is that the majority of people who attended were either nudists, or wannabee nudists, delighted with a chance for a new venue. Followed by people who wanted to see "nekked people", and a few unfortunates who had no clue, and were probably evenly divided among a) horrified, b) tickled, and c) don't care.

What makes them "not worth looking at?" Or, "worth looking at", for that matter?
How did you infer "make a moral deal" out of this promotion? And why are, say, sagging buttocks or wrinkly breasts any more repulsive than sagging
jowls or wrinkled faces?
To me, it sounded kind of fun, kind of bizarre. I think I might have gone, had I lived there, but probably would have worn swimming trunks. (considering myself to be somewhat repulsive. :-) )
