Chelsea Handler's funny remarks and outright honesty are what I knew her for before reading her autobiographical book. I still like her as a person, as a comedian and celebrity, but this book did not make me laugh (as seems to have been the sole intention), it did not convince me that it's a good thing to jump from one bed to another bed, and it was most definitely not funny how Chelsea kept discriminating certain kinds of men because of specific faults she discovered in them (too short penises; a lack of willingness to jump into bed with her immediately after meeting each other; being a virgin). That's part of her honesty, of course, that's part of what made her so famous: that she doesn't keep her opinions on her preferences for herself. She also implied in her writing that it seems to be okay to have a father who shows signs of abusive behaviour and insults people because of their race ("[He] went to a cocktail party in the late eighties with my mother and upon seeing the only black couple there, approached the woman and asked her if she would be interested in cleaning our house.") by not commenting on this behaviour even once.
