Meer over het boek

Mae West's provocative performances in the 1950s challenged societal norms and redefined entertainment. Her nightclub act, known for its controversial and humorous critique of gender roles, featured the objectification of men, showcasing them nearly nude. This bold approach not only captivated female audiences but also transformed perceptions of male physicality in public culture. West's memorable quips, such as "All this steak, and no potatoes," highlighted her unique blend of humor and social commentary, solidifying her legacy as a trailblazer in the entertainment industry.
