Primitive Love: Jayne Mansfield in something completely different
In Primitive Love, Jayne Mansfield, sex bomb, plays Jayne Mansfield the noted cultural anthropologist. Yep. If you think the premise is odd, you’re right, and the movie made from it is a genuine curiosity.

“Lizzie Borden Had a Secret, Mr. Borden Discovered It Then A Quarrel” was the
October 10, 1892 headline of the Fall River Globe. The supposed “secret” was

Respecting Accuracy in Domestic Abuse Reporting (RADAR) recently issued an alert of great importance pointing out how Avon’s sales representatives (of which Reese Witherspoon is the newest pitch-queen) are doing things tremendously damaging to women around the world.
I was shocked to see an intelligent woman like Reese Witherspoon drumming war paint as the Global Ambassador [...]

Note: This review was originally written for a library service called Tele-book in which people could call a special number to hear reviews read. I also used this book extensively in the article I wrote about the Jean Harris-Herman Tarnower case that appears at http://www.crimelibrary.com/notorious_murders/women/harris/1.html.

� I previously wrote how I feel anti-sexist advocate Jackson Katz is one of many domestic violence advocates who use hyperbole in their work, which in turn, leads society towards more of a misunderstanding, rather than a greater understanding, of domestic violence and its causes. Mr. Katz postulates that a “masculinity crisis” is responsible for [...]
