Take the sensitivities out and generalize.

They do let you be an actuary if you are openly gay or transexual?

Hey Joe, so how is Midtown office life? Still wearing pink dress shirts and skirts to work?

Just as a general rule of thumb, truly "sensitive" information is usually best not posted. It WILL bring out the jokesters, trolls and attract generally inappropriate comments.

Better to PM a few posters whose opinions you value and ask if they would mind giving you advice.
