Curious on everyone’s thought on if someone were to fake being LGBT on an application to boost their odds. This is primarily focused on the freshman/sophomore internships at banks, who focus on diversity students. If someone were to do this, should they put on some nail polish and fake a “gay” voice during the interview?

Just say bi, you can still date girls without getting a question.
If they ask you to prove it, kiss the interviewer.
I guess I just need to hope that the interviewer isn’t a guy
We should get a forum for diversity - everyone can post this same question once a day
DEI itself is unethical so if you want to lie to cheat the system that itself is cheating the idea of merit, by all means, do whatever you have to. Just know that some folks will associate you with the Didn't Earn It label if you decide to go that route, even if you were lying to begin with.
This is the best diversity post I have seen on WSO. It is pretty funny. It is certainly more entertaining than the typical diversity post complaining about a urm taking their job.
Do it for the interviews and when you get the job, switch back
Thanks for the advice. My main concern was if there were some hot ass interns, they would be turned off due to the fact that I’m “gay”
I don't think they're allowed to disclose your sexual preferences to your coworkers.
