Hi,
I always try and let people get to know me first.
Like you I don't lie and I'm not ashamed of who I am.
What I have done in the past is use the words 'partner' 'they' 'we' etc without actually mentioning gender, once people get to know me a bit I don't make an issue of saying 'I'm gay' (after all straight people don't wander around saying 'I'm straight') but I do start refering to my partner as 'she', if someone asks me outright I'll be honest.
what sort or area are you going to work in? how many people will you be working with?
Good luck and let us know how you get on.
Splitz
