It is very common to hear the following phrase in the modern political discourse: "It is no one else's business what two adults do in a bedroom". With the clear implication that the government should not regulate sex and reproduction in any way; that it is a private business of individuals.

Yet those same people, for some reason, do not apply this reasoning to many other types of private interaction between individuals. When I negotiate a job contract with a potential employer, it is exactly the same thing: two adults figuring out a private matter. Why is this anyone else's business but the two involved adults?

As such, I propose a better, more comprehensive slogan:

"It is no one else's business what two adults do in a bedroom. It is no one else's business what two adults do in a courtroom. It is no one else's business what two adults do in an office".

Is this too radical a notion?
