Is it legal to be in only underwear in public?

In most places in the western world, yes it is legal to be in underwear in public. Or to be more precise, it is not illegal, there being a subtle difference. But that needs some clarification. Doing so isn't usually classed as indecency. That is presuming of-course that the underwear isn't see-through, tight or so minute that private parts are clear or exposed. Having said that just about everywhere has some law that can be used to stop you in your tracks - if the police are so minded. The kind of law would be causing a public nuisance or alarm - called different things in different places. Such laws are often open to interpretation. In the US these days there are a great many underwear events - from fashion stunts, charity runs and walks to the annual No Pants metro ride - not to mention NY's very own Naked Cowboy who struts around wearing nothing but a pair of tighty whities and a guitar in all weathers. It is doubtful if many of them have been arrested for indecency - or even if the participants themselves consider what they are doing is indecent. The use of nuisance laws would hardly likely to be used against those taking part in a mass event especially one for charity. Basically it would come down to context. If you are up to no good and out to cause alarm then maybe what you are doing is illegal. If it is simply harmless fun and especially in a group the police might have a hard time securing a prosecution - and indeed made to look very foolish if they tried.

Can a juvenile be convicted of indecent exposure in PA?

Some states consider indecent exposure in many ways. For example showing ones back side, breast, or front side in the presence of others is considered to be a sex crime in some states when in others it is indecent exposure, or a lewd and lascivious act. Depending on the age of the juvenile they can be convicted of what ever your state deems appropriate. I don't set the age limits and this is just an example so do not hold this answer to heart. If a 10 year old pulls his penis out to pee on a wall chances are he is not going to be arrested or convicted, but if a 16 year old does the same and knows that you do not do that then he can be charged and convicted of one of those three crimes. Your state may also prosecute them as an adult. So in the state of PA, yes a juvenile can be convicted of Indecent Exposure or possibly a combo there of. I would recommend I good defence lawyer so this does not go on his permanent record.


Is flashing sexual?

Yes, it can be considered sexual. However it can also be considered indecent exposure and that is against the law. A first time offender can be fined and maybe have to spend time in jail. A second time is considered a felony which can lead to state prison. A third time can lead to a life time as a registered sex offender. The law: Indecent exposure laws in most states make it a crime to purposefully display one's genitals in public, causing others to be alarmed or offended. Indecent exposure is often committed for the sexual gratification of the offender or committed to entice a sexual response. It may seem just a prank to the person doing it but be careful.
