So you should be free to do whatever you want in front of your huge, wide open window that anyone in the neighborhood passing by can see?
Why not? I don't walk around naked, but if i'm in my home, i do what i want as long as it is not hurting anyone else.

Well, for one, it's against the law to walk around naked by an open window.
I live in San Diego, and it is common for my husband and I to occasionally walk around our apartment in the nude or a robe, and when we are on our balcony we either have robes on, or I will have shorts and a sports bra and him, minimum, shorts. We live on the second floor and usually have the curtains open as we like to have the natural light in the apartment (especially not to waste electricity). We have been doing this for the past 2 years without any complaint. Recently we received an email from our apartment manager stating we were not allowed to do this and we need to "dress more appropriately" asking us to "put more clothes on" or have our curtains closed at ALL times.
I understand that on the balcony there needs to be some sort of clothes on, but I am usually wearing more then people do at the pool (yes, there is one in my apartment building and have seen people walking around in a lot less then my sports bra and shorts). But can they really tell me how I need to dress INSIDE my own apartment? And, am I not wearing enough clothes on my balcony? Am I in the wrong here?

Give this some thought. If you continue and are arrested for indecent exposure, you may also be required to register as a sex offender for life.
Close your damn drapes.

lolololol. As a landlord, I would like to explain something to you. It's not your apartment. It is the landlords and he or she sets the terms for you to live there. Every day I get someone who tries to debate why I don't allow pit bulls or 8 semi trucks parked on the lawn of one of my rentals. The landlord sets the rules, and you prancing around half naked for all to see is not OK. I would evict you in a heart beat to remind you who's apartment it is and to wish you good luck finding an apartment with an eviction on your record. No way I would try to debate it with you as you don't seem to get it...
