Plans for a children's playground are being scrapped after LGBTQ protesters said it couldn't go ahead because it was near a queer-friendly nudist beach.
What was described as a 'children's play area' - funded by a private donor putting up more than $500,000 - was being considered for Denny Blaine Park, which has been home to the nude beach for swimmers, sunbathers and exhibitionists on Lake Washington for decades.
Nudity is not illegal in the state of Washington, but the law makes it so that if it 'crosses over into something obscene' it becomes illegal.
