Tiny Roselawn, Ind., makes someone's list of the "10 kinkiest cities in America":
Not only does Roselawn maintain a thriving (and family friendly!) nudist resort, the Ponderosa Sun Club also hosts a yearly pageant called “Nudes-A-Poppin,” MC'd by none other than famed porn star Ron Jeremy. It's not just the strippers and porn stars shaking their money makers on stages and poles that draw thousands to this celebration every year; erotic dancing, public sex, and of course, exhibitionism abound. Located about 50 miles south of Chicago, on 88 acres of rural woodlands, Ponderosa also offers several G-rated recreational activities you never knew would be more awesome naked, like horseshoes, volleyball and chili cook-offs.
Makes you proud to be a Hoosier, doesn't it? Most of the cities on the list are big and obvious -- New York, New Orleans, Las Vegas, Chicago. The other big surprise is Hurley, Wisc., a logging town with 1,547 residents and six strip clubs, or one club for every 238 residents.
I don't know what it is about that little burg, but the nudity culture has always been big in Roselawn. When I went to Ball State, there was a Miss Nude America pageant in Roselawn run by a guy in a wheelchair. I was editor of the Ball State Daily News magazine and decided to do a spread on the pageant, so I asked for volunteers. One writer responded -- and six photographers.
