Profiles the colorful life of M. Sayle Taylor, self-styled sex and marriage educator, who rose to national prominence in the 1930s as radio's "Voice of Experience".
Media history is his subject, and, as this memoir makes so delightfully clear, it has also been Erik Barnouw's life. Barnouw's story, told with wit and charm in Media Marathon, is the story of American culture adjusting to the twentieth century, of new media repeatedly displacing the old in a century-long competitive upheaval.
How Sex Became a Civil Liberty shows how we came to see sexual expression, sexual practice, and sexual privacy as fundamental rights enshrined in the Constitution, thanks to the work of ACLU leaders and attorneys who forged legal principles that advanced the sexual revolution.
A set of 4 booklets produced by Marion Sayle Taylor, a radio host, quack doctor, and patent medicine salesman, as part of his "Health and Happiness" for Women series. The series covers general sexual education, including menstruation and female sexual health, as well as more pseudoscientific topics. How to Know Your Affinity, for instance, acts as an instructional guide for finding martial compatibility by comparing glandular types, while Natural Birth Control and Predetermination of Sex illustrates how the sex of an unborn child can be determined by concieving under "male" or "female" moons. In the early 20th century, Taylor operated radio advice shows on CBS, NBC, and Mutual, and circumvented the Food and Drug Administration by broadcasting from Mexico to advertise expensive, ineffective medicine to his wide audience.
Published in 1927, The Male Motor presents plain facts about the care and conservation of man’s sex-energies, showing how man’s physical health, mental power, length of usefulness, and virility depend on the proper functioning of the glands of his progenital system.
