Lovely--
I recently had lunch with two very powerful women, one is a lobbyist and another is a SES-level executive.
Well I was discussing an upcoming trip to visit some friends and I commented on how I met them. Now I did not reveal the name of the site (S & S), but I stated the site's purpose in a matter-of-fact tone.
Later on, they both asked me if I was intersted in pursuing a sorority and which one. I politely told them I regarded my choice as personal and I did not share that information. While a bit "shocked", they completely understood and left it alone. One of the ladies smiled, as if she could understand where I was comimg from.
I usually say NOTHING to anyone except those who have known me and my pursuit for some time OR SF that I closely interact with that share the same pursuit.
Otherwise, its none of their business!
