It’s hard to lie when you’re naked.
Therefore I have an immodest proposal. All important negotiations should be done in the nude.
Just think about how much more pleasant life would be. If you’re negotiating with your lover, nudity is a great way to defuse an argument. If you’re negotiating at work, nudity is a great way to make certain that the meeting doesn’t go on any longer than absolutely necessary. Plus, the knowledge that you’re going to have to take off your clothes encourages good personal hygiene – something that would make any workplace a happier environment.
Politicians, not the most confident or attractive bunch on the best of days, would streamline their negotiations in order to be allowed to put on clothing more quickly. Hiring managers would be on equal ground with their new employees in salary negotiations because everyone would start out feeling slightly uncomfortable. All of a sudden, the world would be a more honest place!
There might be another positive side effect to my proposal. As nudity became a fact of life, people of all shapes, sizes, and colors might become more comfortable with their bodies. They would learn that beauty is not just perfectly tanned size-two beach bunnies with endless legs and impressive breasts but something unique and exciting about every individual. It might make their position during salary negotiations a little less potent, but I suspect they would be still be happier. So lets give it a try, it might be fun. Next time I go in to argue about my rent, I’m thinking about wearing only a pair of shoes and a smile.
