A friend who hadn't traveled by air recently asked if she would have to take off her suit jacket to pass through security. The answer is, "yes", unless you aren't wearing a top under your suit jacket. She indicated that she didn't like to expose her bare arms to others. My response was that the "airport invisi-shield rule" applies. Because everyone going through airport security is subjected to the same examination, everyone just develops a one-on-one relationship with the screeners, and doesn't acknowledge other passengers until the redressing stage at the other end of security.
When everyone is out of their element, the "invisi-shield rule" is in effect.
Perhaps it would be advantageous to invoke the "invisi-shield rule" in other settings to allow colleagues to eliminate the focus on their appearance and focus solely on their contributions to the discussion at hand.
