Thank you, Audrey!

It was fantastic to be in an auditorium with all the most famous and sacred gay and lesbian authors of all time! Magic was in the air last night. At the at the pre-awards reception, I went up to the bar and got a lovely glass of red wine...included in the ticket price surprisingly, and put a $5 tip on the counter. The gay barman's face lit up, and I smiled to myself as the other gay men put down $1 bills. Single handedly, I was going to put to rest the stereotype of the "cheap" lesbian tippers!!!

1969er: Anyone care to weigh in on lesbian tipping practices?

caesarea4: Is that like cow tipping?

I usually tip $1 when I get a glass of water at the bar.

What about carry-out?

irishboxers: It is if you're in Wisconsin.

As a former waiter and bartender, lesbians were tricky. Some tipped well, others were downright mean (run you ragged for that dollar on $80). In general, though, not so great. I had some lesbian regulars at my last bar and they tipped very well, but like I said they were regulars.

Hidden member: LOL about the lesbians.... amongst others.... whom we curl our toes, and roll our eyes about when we see at our bar or in our section...

silkrock: I sure do they are by far the worst tippers I have ever seen! I hate it when they want to act all nice about it. What a bitch.

The Happy Waitress

from The Happy Waitress:

After my third consecutive lunch shift at the restaurant, the novelty has definitely worn off. Actually yesterday’s lunch was going pretty well until my last two tables. First were the lesbians- I thought I had this one in the bag since lesbians usually love me. In fact once as I was walking away from the table I heard one woman say to the other, “she is so sweet!” The magic was lost when they got the bill, however. It was $75 and they left me a $2 tip. Yikes!

Cant' blame a girl wanting to save some cash. (see post to come on lesbian tipping practices) Plus Chris hates to shop and Leslie takes care of the clothing budget.

from a Lesbian Discussion Group: Stuff Lesbians Like Part 18: Being cheap to fund their food habits

from Stuff Lesbians Like Part 18. Money quote:

Yes, we’re cheap. We’re not always the best tippers but please understand.. we’ll need the $5 to spend that old fashioned, 100000% butterfat ice cream “shoppe” after dinner.

A survey with a different conclusion

from Queercents: Money quote:

Lesbians were the most generous with their coffee shop tipping but by contrast, they were 10% more likely than gay men not to tip the bartender.
