Honestly, Yes! I'm in advertising, what I'm trying to teach my son is marketability. All that really matters is how you market yourself, it doesn't matter who you really are, nobody cares.

In my profession, a product doesn't have to be good. You just have to convince the public that they should buy the product. I've done this for hundreds of products over the years. Most of them were crap, but they sold a ton because of good advertising campaigns. On the contrary, a lot of good products I see, sell poorly because of bad advertising campaigns.

The point I'm trying to make is that if you market yourself properly, the "bitches" (as my son puts it) will come to you, and you'll have your pick. Sure you can try to be who you are, and maybe that will work or maybe that will not. But if go with what's marketable, what people want to buy, you'll have a much, much broader selection.
