If you are a woman with your own money, you have confidence. You have the pick of the litter.

When you're a plus-sized girl, belts are your best friends. I also love bright colors and skirts, to show my pretty knees.

Even when I was an engineer, I was a comic on my job. At birthday and holiday parties, I was the one scheduling and emceeing. If you work on your gift, and you're good, it will shine through.

You men make up these rules, and now you get mad because I'm telling you what a real woman wants. She wants you to treat her like a lady if you want her to sit up there and put on all the lingerie!

What helped was that my mother, even though we didn't have a lot of money... allowed me to take part in the Girl Scouts.

I don't want to get married - I've been there and done that. So I know what I'm talking about when I say that. And for everybody has a different path - find out your path! And if you want to do it, don't let people make you feel inadequate because you wanted to do something that's different.
