The BAP Handbook is a fun book that isn't really meant to be taken seriously. Some of the stuff is true and the other stuff is meant for humor. I really enjoy it though. And I can relate to a lot of things in there. Some of the info in the book is helpful in becoming a BAP. Do you consider yourself to be a BAP?

I bought that book for a friend for her birthday...it even has info about college...although what's stated about Hampton is untrue...something about it'll take you 6 years to graduate. Not sure if she read it.

I think I'm a BAP. I know for sure I'm not ghetto or country. I pronounce my e's and r's but if any of them I'm probably more of a butterfly than a betty. **** at the boguses because I know some girls just like that.

It says Hampton is where to go if you want to graduate. Howard is the black hole where no one graduates in 4 years.

I read it, and I was bit peeved for the Zetas and the Sigmas. I'm not Greek or anything like that, but they completely tossed them aside as if they aren't even worth the mention. I know it was meant to be a joke, but it honestly wasn't funny. However, the rest of the book was cool, although the term BAP has been around for a while and no book could ever make someone into one, lol. I'm sure the more mature audience will realize this, but I bet it's some young Black girls who are just dying to reinvent themselves as a Betty, a Boho, or a Butterfly... so the Impressionable Young Girl should not read this book.
