Bossypants by Tina Fey

     Tina Fey's comedic autobiography "Bossypants" was very amusing. I could relate her to myself when she was a teen. She would spent her teenage years working at a theatre summer camp which I also did. I can relate my life to her because both of out moms are crazy and funny. Tina Fey's mom gave her a book about a girls period that a parent is supposed to read to the child. Surprisingly my mom did that to me too. This autobiography also made me feel good about myself because making funny of yourself in a positive way does boost yourself esteem.  Fey would always mention a little sassy and funny comment about how she has her dads feet. She also mentioned that she wouldn't do anything in the world to give up her unique looks but she would give up her dad's feet. This made me crack up. I agreed with a lot of what Tina Fey said about women. She went to a seminar and the subject that was chatted among the women was "What day did you feel like you felt like a woman." Fey said most of the women said they felt like a grown woman when a guy commented something sexual to them. Fey and I both feel like once we feel like we're a grown woman is when we accomplish something valuable. Most of the humor was too mature for me because Fey mentioned a lot of old actresses and actors at that time who I don't know about. You never become someone unless you are called bossy.
