Colb criticized the tipping system in general as facilitating the kind of discrimination that Lynn uncovered.
“Like the employer who fails to promote an employee because she does not sufficiently conform to the feminine stereotype, restaurant owners share in the blame for utilizing a pay structure that turns unenlightened customers into the ‘boss’ in charge of determining a server’s take-home pay,” she said.

Yeah, I’ve long forgiven lousy service because the waitress fills out her uniform in a pleasing manner.
Do these so-called feminists ever realize just sexist they are when they come up with this kind of crap?

Instead, he found that waitresses with larger bra sizes received higher tips — as did women with blonde hair and slender bodies.....

In a related story, Waiters with a tan and defined 6-pack make more tips than over-weight Waiters.
Somehow this is a shock? Part of the job of a Wait Person is to deliver the product the customer wants in a timely manner, graciously, politely and looking good while you do it only adds to the tip.
