In the headlines - Booty call

LONDON (Reuters) - Up to a third of telephone users in Britain make calls in the nude, with men more prone to do it without clothes than women, a survey revealed on Thursday.

Research commissioned by Britain's Post Office, which offers a fledgling home phone service, revealed that 40 percent of men admitted to nattering naked compared with 27 percent of women. The results were based on a survey of 1,500 telephone users.

Of course what this doesn't take into account is how many people talk on public phones in the nude. The great thing about these hands-free phones is that it does allow you to do other things whilst you are on the dog and bone. Such as making the tea, trimming your toe nails or the gardening. Why else would you want to be nude?
