Seven New York City bartenders were
asked if they could nail a woman's personality based on
what she drinks. Though interviewed separately, they
concurred on almost all counts.
Drink: Beer
Personality: Casual, low-maintenance, down to
earth.
Your Approach: Challenge her to a game of pool.
Drink: Blender Drinks
Personality: Flaky, whiny, annoying, a pain in the
butt.
Your Approach: Avoid her, unless you want to be her
cabin boy.
Drink: Mixed Drinks
Personality: Older, more refined, high maintenance,
very picky, knows exactly what she wants.
Your Approach: You won't have to approach her; if she
is interested, she'll send you a drink.
Drink: Wine (does not include White
Zinfandel, see below)
Personality: Conservative and classy, sophisticated yet
giggles.
Your Approach: Tell her you love to travel and spend
quiet evenings with friends.
Drink: White Zinfandel
Personality: Easy, thinks she is classy and
sophisticated, but actually has no clue.
Your Approach: Make her feel smarter than she is; this
should be an easy target.
Drink: Shots
Personality: Likes to hang with frat-boy pals and is
looking to get totally drunk ... and naked.
Your Approach: Easiest hit in the joint. You have been
blessed this evening. Nothing to do but wait. However,
be careful not to make her mad!
Then there is the male
addendum. The deal with guys is, as always, very simple
and clear cut:
Domestic Beer: He's poor and wants to get
laid.
Imported Beer: He likes good beer and wants to
get laid.
Wine: He's hoping that the wine thing will give
him a sophisticated image to help him get laid.
Whiskey: He doesn't give a hoot about anything
but getting laid.
Tequila: He is thinking he has a chance with the
toothless waitress.
White Zinfandel: He's gay (and looking to get
laid).
