Good one--funny but brief and to the point! A great coming-out story if there ever was one. Only moment was because your assistant was named Ray I thought she was a guy. It might have been funnier if she had been.
I remember a company retreat to Keystone, CO with that company. While my husband attended company workshops, he said that the wife of one of the VPs would be holding a workshop for the wives and did I want to go? I might have asked him if he was on drugs. I declined, suspecting that the lecture for the ladies would be about supporting your man and being submissive. We laugh about it now.
But which is the truth? If Ray had been a guy, the laugh would be a real LOL if his response had been "Oh, don't worry about her, she's a lesbian!" But I'm picking nits here, it's a good story either way.

Sometimes I do want to embellish (or lie) to make the truth more appealing

You would have been right. It was Elaine Poluster's wives indoctrination. You would have blown the place up!
Unburdening, surprisingly, equals cathartic. Although I hate the having to hide. Even back then. And, sadly, in many situations now.
Yes, all our protections are under attack.
