My Fed Ex driver was attempting a delivery at my neighbors. No one was home so he knocked on my door and asked if I would accept the package. I was naked and didn't go to the door, and told him I was. He replied, No problem...I won't look. I opened the door...he kept his head down. As I was signing, I noticed he gave me the once over. I said "hey, you're looking!" He just laughed! I have signed for all my packages naked since then...No problems!!
. I think these two postal workers are setting themselves up for some "stress" related retirement! LOL
The woman carrier said she "had never seen any man, other than [her] husband, naked". She was obviously trying to see a naked man then, because the gates open with a key card, or by having the office open them, so I don't believe any man was outside the gate nude. Only residents get mail delivered and I can imagine that a resident would would do that, knowing the trouble it could cause.
And vendors are inside the gates making deliveries all the time, and none of them had an issue with nude people. I think the carriers were just looking to be offended.
This is what you get when people demand of others and the Nanny State instead of standing on their own two feet and dealing with the problem.
Only a troll could take a simple news story about postal service workers not wanting to be exposed (pun intended) into a political context about "nanny states". If nuding was generally accepted then nudist clubs, resorts, beaches, etc. would not be set apart from textile beaches and the clubs be in more remote areas. For reasons that I may not agree with, nuding offends the majority of the population. That is why so many communities have banned public nuding. Having postal workers complain about having to deliver mail insidea nudist club is and would be a legitimate workplace issue. Now that the mailboxes have been moved to the roadway outside the club it would seem that the issue has been resolved.
Trying to make this into a big government v. little government or any other argument is just additional proof that the OP's main reason for posting is to stir the sh*t (aka trolling).
Generally speaking a nudist venue is a known entity in a known location. As such, it is on a route and may be staffed by a nudist in work cloths. A random house on a street where a nudist answers the door while nude may be unexpected and shocking. Normal people may be able to deal with it. However there are those who find fault with everyone and everything just waiting to cause an altercation.

*sniff...sniff*I smell personal animosity toward me.And, of course, my point is ignored-just a petty insult.
You can smell anything you wish, but your point was being ignored since it is totally absurd! In our culture the norm and mores (not that I agree) are against nudity. Who can forget John Ashcroft draping a nude statue?
Being a textile society in the textile Western World one does not expect to encounter nude people in the course of their rounds for the Postal Service. If a Postal worker is regularly confronted by nudes while delivering mail inside the confines of a naturist club they have every right to complain if they find it offensive.
The Postal Worker's right to complain about their working conditions; specifically being forced to deliver mail inside a nudist club has nothing to do with the existence of a nanny state. There is nothing to comment upon when you make such an absurd statement except the observation that you will take any/every opportunity to make things appear to fit your political views. This has no more to do with the theory of a nanny state then it does with tomorrow's weather!

The mailboxes were always outside the gate, however where they were originally located was closer to the gate. Now they are on the opposite side of the road, farther away from the gate, and completely out of view of the gate, so there is no chance of the letter carriers being "exposed" to nudity. Unless they try to be exposed to it. :)
