“Phenomenal Woman” was a good reading. I liked it because I felt that it encourages women to be their self. The author shows that the person in this poem feels very confident about herself. I think that it is telling people especally women that no matter what anybody else thinks you should be happy with yourself.  It lets women know that you don’t have to be a super model in order to be beautiful. The poem want women to know that they are beautiful the way god made them.
