The Nice Offensive

I was thinking about a new tactic that perhaps we should adopt, I call it the nice offensive versus the in your face approach. What I would like to see is Gay people to be known for how generous we are, and also how nice we are to deal with. Here is a way to begin; when it comes to tipping, if you have the means, tip often and generously. We always tip the maid at a hotel, 20 percent for a waiter/waitress, at least a dollar per drink for the bar back or bartender. This becomes especially important in bad economic times. If people who work in hotels, restaurants, bars, be it straight or Gay want our business, they will support us. We have made huge strides in the business world already, but we can win the hearts of the workers also. Let us not be those stingy bitches, but benevolent Queens!
