Skinny Women Are Evil

Note of a Big Girl in a Small-Minded World

By: Mo'Nique

Narrated by: Mo'Nique

Now in paperback, popular comedienne and television star Mo'Nique tells us how to be a big woman in a small woman's world.

It is NO secret that I am a BIG girl.

Always have been, always will be.

The only way I'll ever wear a size 6, or even a 16, is if you add them together. That's right: I wear a size 22. And I'm proud, because I wear it well.

Hell, even Ray Charles and Stevie Wonder can see that!

Such is the life—and largesse—of Mo'Nique, one of America's best-loved plus-size personalities. “I really wish I didn't have to write this book,” writes Mo'Nique. “But it appears I have no choice. Especially when BIG girls are still subjected to ridicule simply because we've been blessed with a few extra pounds.” In Skinny Women Are Evil, Mo'Nique strips away the stigma of being weight-challenged and introduces a new vocabulary in which F.A.T. is FABULOUS AND THICK and a woman who is “skinny” is just plain evil. Why? Because America gives them the comfortable airline seats, the fashionable clothes, and the lead roles in the Hollywood blockbusters. So how can a F.A.T. girl learn to operate in the it's-a-small-world after all? In this hilarious, heartwarming book, women of all sizes, shapes, and colors can benefit from Mo'Nique's Fat Girls' Survival Tips, a handy Thin-O-Meter, and a generous portion of advice about dating, eating, dressing, undressing, and much more.

Skinny Women Are Evil is Mo'Nique's testament to living large and loving it. So go on, dig in!

Mo'Nique at her best

Great read. Loved it from start to finish. It goes behind the scenes and gets down to the core of Mo'Nique

AMAZING !!

I love Mo’Nique she has always been my role model since a kid ! Even as an adult I love her she made me so confident! This book reaffirmed it

Very inspiring and self assuring

I think the best learning I was able to get from this book is that acceptance needs to come from oneself first. It was very touching to see her journey 'till now that she is an academy award winner.

Most unashamedly down to earth title I have heard

I would listen to this title again simply because Mo'nique not only approached the whole skinny women versus fat women in a very direct and unbiased way. She emphasizes in this title the need for self-acceptance and self-love. she embraces

Who was your favorite character and why?

Favourite character was Mo'nique. Her story was one which never lacked action or interest. At every point her life had happy moments, moments of shame and moments that even contained physical abuse. Monique as a character was all encompassing. She was able to bring all aspects of society into play in this title.

Have you listened to any of Mo'Nique’s other performances before? How does this one compare?

No never listened to any of her performances. I watch her show the Parkers a lot and I was able to see that there were similarities between the two characters. However there were marked differences. I thought that she in this book was much more untamed and just raw. this performance gave us the

If you were to make a film of this book, what would be the tag line be?
