Vol. 12: Dykes and the City

qDear Tranny,

I recently moved to San Francisco from New York City. Having once been a NYC chick yourself, I’m sure you’re familiar with the lesbian nightlife there. But where do I find it here? Where can a dynamic dyke like me find some action in the Bay?

Looking for Lezzies

aDear Looking,

Gurrrl, I know what you mean. Looking for a lesbian hang out in San Francisco is almost as difficult as finding a straight man at an Exodus International retreat. But because I consider myself a tranny of all trades, I know where to find some girl-on-girl action. So I waved my curling iron and came up with this sumptuous selection of Sapphic hot spots.

The Lexington Club is considered to be the most popular girl bar in the city. This Mission District institution is teeming with hot babes and cheap booze. Another great bar, The WildSide West, located in the heart of Bernal Dykes [ahem] Heights, is also quite popular with the local lesbian community. Les Ladiez, every Thursday night at The Lookout, attracts a great mix of girls, from L Word lipsticks to softball dykes. With super drink specials, cute shot girls, and a rotating cast of girlicious DJs, Thursday nights might just become your must-she night of the week.

Interested in cutting a rug? No, no, honey. I mean, on the dance floor! If you’ve got rhythm and are looking for some pop chemistry, San Francisco’s most homolicious dance party Cockblock is for you. You can bust your best moves every second Saturday at The Rickshaw. And, for the discerning dyke who demands a more exclusive level of entertainment when she hits the town, there’s Ciel Salon at 41 Sutter Street in the Financial District. This monthly private social club is located in a penthouse suite with a rooftop deck and sweeping city views. Ciel Salon happens every third Saturday.

Now that you’re sufficiently equipped, your nights may never be lonely again. Happy hunting!

Remember, Tranny knows best.

xoxo
Sandra
