Lesbians' coping strategies for dealing with heteronormativity and homophobia in German workplaces are explored. Consistent with previous research in Germany, half of the ten women interviewed are mostly or completely open about their sexuality at work, while the other half are mostly or completely "closeted" at work. Qualitative analyses reveal that the women have a variety of reasons for being "out" or "closeted" in the workplace
