I was at Goldman Sachs when I came out as a trans woman. I wondered if my colleagues thought I was a freak the first time they saw me with makeup on.
The great wardrobe change came about in the winter. For most of my career at Goldman Sachs, I commuted from Pound Ridge into the City, got off the train and jogged to work. My starting point station depended on how hung over I was.
One of the assistants tapped on the glass window of my office. I hurriedly pushed all my makeup into my top drawer, stood up and opened the door."Do you want to take a call from Bloomberg?""Of course," I answered, wondering if she had noticed. After the call, I went to the men's room, where I changed into pink corduroy pants, a bra, a pink sweater, and black high-heeled boots.
The elevator came and I rushed in. Good, I said to myself, only one other person was present. Feeling relatively safe, I dutifully took out my iPhone because that's what people do on elevators. Peeking up at the other occupant, I realized he was a senior investment banker whom I had been friendly with. We often talked about career and family while going up to Bloomberg for TV hits. Since we both had experience living in Asia, we also swapped stories about our adventures there.
