Q&A: Proud LGBTQIA+ Nonbinary in IBD at a BB in London

Hi all, you can call me Rachel (name changed for anonymity). 
 

I'm a bisexual woman of Latino/Hispanic ethnicity who works as a 3rd year post-MBA associate at a BB in London. My alma mater is from some sub-200 school in my home country, and I got a MBA from Kellogg. 
 

I am on the chair of URochester (along with Richard Handler, the c suite exec at a MM advisory shop), because of my substantial donations there. 
 

I have spent four years in my country's armed forces as an Armour Officer, operating a regiment of Leopard 2A1 MBTs, with first hand experience in Desert Storm, Desert Shield, The War of the Roses, The Second and Fifth Skirmish of the Watergate Scandal and Project Blackout.

The only difference between Asset Management and Investment Research is assets. I generally see somebody I know on TV on Bloomberg/CNBC etc. once or twice a week. This sounds cool, until I remind myself that I see somebody I know on ESPN five days a week.
 

nobody cares. You want me to link the story about the Tranny at my place?

First question (and asking this from a lesbian perspective)… are you REALLY a woman? I have not seen a single dyke / bi self identifies with LGBTQIA+ plus the whatever nonbinary bs

 

Vel consequuntur vitae minima ut error ut. Ad itaque eum et aliquam. Eum debitis voluptatem quibusdam atque animi et reiciendis possimus. Laborum est cumque voluptas. Odio dolores illo iusto harum et sint.

Never discuss with idiots, first they drag you at their level, then they beat you with experience.
