A man is giving a TED talk to the audience. He has a picture on the wall of himself in lingerie.
The picture seems inappropriate for this kind of setting.
Why did the man choose to show that picture?
As an icebreaker, let's all share one interesting thing about ourselves. I'll start.

An absurd joke about icebreakers --- sometimes, to get to know people in a group setting, everyone will go around and say a fun fact about themselves. Usually, because folks are strangers, the fact shared is benign, like a favorite food or vacation spot. But here, the man is keen to share his hobby of cross-dressing like a woman, which, while not socially unacceptable, is a more taboo personal fact to share versus the usual benign facts.
