Product Description:
The woman of the Borscht Belt are frequently been called the mothers of the sexual revolution. With their roots in '30s comedians such as Fanny Brice, these ladies made their homes in the saloons of New York, Vegas and of course the Catskills. Their comedy routines exposed the subject of sex from a female perspective. Their material was considered very advanced for it's day and considered extremely raunchy. Albums by Rusty Warren and Totie Fields were tucked away by many parents so their children could not listen to them. These women were the first comedians to openly discuss sex at a time when sex was just not discussed publicly. Most lost popularity as the sexual revolution of the late '60s started to take hold and the topic was no longer taboo.
