I'm exactly the same way!!!!!! I'm up for an editorial position (covering Classics, ancient near east, religion, some music, and some art) at Harvard Univ. Press. I want the job so much that I completely violated my own principles and applied to and interviewed for it totally butchOK, fine, that's impossible. But I did wear all boys' clothes (well, a couple of exceptions §;-) ), leave off almost all make-up, and speak in self-consciously resonant tones from deep in my chest.

and good luck with yer jobbie job too!
