It is illegal for a woman to appear in a bathing suit on a highway without an escort or a club.

Status: Historical / Repealed

The Law Explained

This famously absurd legal myth states that no female shall appear in a bathing suit on a Kentucky highway unless escorted by two police officers or carrying a club for self-defense. The only supposed exceptions are if she weighs less than 90 pounds or more than 200 pounds. While often cited as a real law passed to enforce 1920s public modesty, it is largely considered a legislative joke or urban legend that was never strictly on the books.
