I was at a company meeting and people were excited to have me on the various client teams because “we need diversity”.  I realized they were talking about being a woman and I said, helpfully, that I satisfy two boxes.  “Which other one?”  “Gay,” I responded.  Then I was asked if I wanted to join the GLBT affinity group.  “No,” I said, “I am very comfortable being gay, and my only interest is satisfying client diversity requirements to get more business.  But if you have a working mothers’ affinity group, that’d be great.”

So, I’m here, I’m queer, they are used to it, but they don’t get it.
