Female Sex-Murderer

They exist, but there are not as many as male sex-murderers. One of the most baffling cases is the one of the Hungarian Piroska Jancso-Ladanyi (1934-1954). She didn't kill men, but women, and her inclination to do so allegedly was her strong sexual drive. The author Szilard Rubin described her life extensively in the novel "Little Saints". 

Szilard Rubin 

The crimes of Piroska Jancso-Ladanyi were gruesome: She killed - and raped - five very young girls between 1953 and 1954. Her rape consisted of "rubbing herself against the corpse of the murdered girl". I take it that she was a sort of "misplaced lesbian" who tried to find her sexual way in a bewildering situation without ever being able to do so. That may not be so very surprising when considering her family background, which was pitiful to say the least. Not that it excuses what she did, but it may explain the pattern of her actions, at least up to a point

She was the daughter of a totally penniless woman who, at the age of 16, started to offer sexual favors to male farmers as part of her working for them as a maid. She had five children by four different men, one of them the biological father of Piroska and her brother Jozsef. He was forced to pay the sum of 600 forints as a "once and never again"-alimony for his daughter, not wanting to deal with her again. At that time she had followed in the footsteps of her mother, becoming a prostitute at a very young age. Her mother's customers were mostly Hungarians, whereas she often serviced Soviet soldiers from the nearby garnison. I suppose that's how she learnt to speak fluent Russian, which was something that was noticed when she was arrested for theft. At that time she wrote poetry, loved to wander around by herself, and most likely got more and more confused about who and what she was. All of that confusion ended when she was arrested as a female serial-killer and was hanged on December 12, 1954, leaving her son, Mihaly, motherless. Her last wish, namely to see him, was not granted.

Myths of Sexual Organs

 

There are loads of vaginal myths out there in the public. One of these that I've seen before is this one about the "one hole" vagina. Although it's tempting to laugh it off as some crazy guys trying to be funny, or a hillbilly who doesn't know much after years in what I call "thoughts-and-prayers"-schools, it would not be fair on the guys and others like them. By now, I suspect that it's the individual teachers who don't feel obliged to see to it that the children they are set to educate aren't being taught basics. They feel embarrassed by the subject, or they simply didn't learn about it themselves. Now and then, it looks like there are some new, healthy, unbiased approaches toward the issue of biology and science, and that not everything is blotted out by religious fruitcakes, but then one may see hefty discussions like the one above and realizes that that's not the case: Biology and sex are still buried in myths, some sexist, and some simply proofs of extreme ignorance.

Surprisingly enough, even UK women need some biology lessons as well - yeah, maybe even many more people of all sexes all over the world don't know how to count entrances and outlets "down there" when it comes to women. As men have been "the normal" for ages, some may even hate the  truth that women have one more "hole" than men. It's crazy and not at all as it should be, but it seems very likely.

When it comes to men and their genitals, it shouldn't be that difficult to count what there is and what's what, but the working of the "gear" presents some problems because of the many myths surrounding the male sexual organ. Also, there may be some considerations about "not scaring the men of females" which give rise to some stupid mistakes. However, the truth is that females are much more developed "down there" than males. That shouldn't come as a surprise, but often does, as the key to the matter is visibility. In the days of Shakespeare the female organ was nicknamed "Nothing", because women don't sport something that makes itself gain a surplus visibility through erections.  

 

When it comes to sexual organs, men are like the Platupus which are Monotrema and thus belongs to the group of ancient living mammals. Being monotrema these animals are primitive, and it may be tempting to some to use that fact in jokes about the male sex and their worshipping their penis and its symbolical value in male legends of grandeur and power.

Stealing out of "love" for the stolen objects or out of greed?

 

It's a very strange experience for a writer to see how one of the worst leeches of the world of books, Filippo Bernardini, got away with his theft of unpublished works, e.g. by a well-known author like Margaret Atwood. By pretending to be a legitimate publisher/employee he got access to many unpublished scripts of both newbie authors and established ones, and he is supposed to have stolen more than 1000 manuscripts. HOW did he avoid prison for something like that??? To me, that is something quite incomprehensable because each script represents work by an author: Time spent, ideas, and the writing itself don't float around in a workless sphere, but takes dedication and stamina, just like e.g. harvesting by a farmer. The sentence of Filippo Bernardini only was for a much deserved deportation as well as restitution money to the biggest name in publishing, Penguin House: $88,000.

To be able to steal the unpublished manuscripts he impersonated publishing professionals, which also makes him an "identity thief". It's amazing - as well as scary - that he succeeded in this scheme for quite a long time: From 2016 until his arrest in 2022. In my opinion committing aggravated identity theft should have landed him in jail, and the theft should have kept him there: Both the stealing of manuscripts and the identity theft should have been punished by the law, and I feel that the authors and the publishing world as such were let down by the judicial world.

Bad Genes: Joseph and Nicholas Brooks

 

Joseph Brooks doesn't exactly look like the picture of a "cover-boy" of romantic music. Nonetheless, he wrote the hit song "You Light Up My World", besides producing and directing the 1977-drama of the same name, all of which brought him fame and wealth. Also, he composed e.g. "Blue Balloon" as well as jingles for e.g. Pepsi and Maxwell House. However, somewhere along the road he seems to have turned from a well-known and appreciated song-writer into a detestable criminal: A serial rapist. The winner of an Academy Award, a Golden Globe Award and a Grammy Award ended up committing suicide before his trial for rape in 2011. When that happened, his son, Nicholas, was also facing prison for a serious crime, namely murder.

Nicholas Brooks

Looking quite cute, the son of Joseph Brooks, Nicholas, led a happy-go-lucky playboy-life. He never had any kind of career after he dropped out of college, and didn't seem to want to commit himself to anything but drugs. They were the true "love of his life", but in 2010 the charming, young man (24 years old) caught the eye of the Peruvian-American swimsuit designer, Sylvie Cachay (1977-2010). They bonded after one of her dogs was hit by a car, and he comforted and helped her after the accident. Contrary to him, she was a successful woman with a fine career as a fashion designer. She was the one who headed the swimsuit designing team of Victoria's Secret, which was one of her many achievements that cemented her fame in the world of fashion. 

They became a couple in 2010, but their relationship met with many difficulties, and it seems to have been an off-on affair for most of the time. She was a success - as well as somewhat older than him - but he was a failure, with economic problems and no real plans of solving them. He didn't have a good relationship with his father, even though he was the one who paid for his volatile life-style. 

On December 9, 2010, Sylvie was found strangled and drowned in a bathtub at the Soho House where the couple was staying at the time. At that time, they had been together for six months, but she may have made it clear to him that she wanted out of their relationship, which could be the trigger that turned him into a murderer. Anyway, he was convicted of murdering her, and on September 23, 2013, he was sentenced to 25 years to life. 

What went wrong with this father and son? That's anybody's guess ....

The Literary Formula of Consolation and Acceptance

 

 Jane Austen

Some authors are formula writers, even some great authors like e.g. Jane Austen, although nobody would call her that as the term is considered derogatory. Someone like e.g. Philippa Gregory, who has published a lot of historical romances, also is a formula writer: Each one of her books always has a fixated gallery of main characters, namely a Whore and an Angel. The fixated gallery of Jane Austen will be the smart, but not the most beautiful girl who - sometimes to her own surprise - conquers the richest, but very demure and even unpleasant hero, like, for instance, Mr. Darcy of "Pride and Prejudice". When conquered, he changes into a loving husband who simply adores his bride. 

Actually, one will meet this very same formula in e.g. the works of the late "Queen of Romance", Barbara Cartland. To me, the consistent formula writings of many female authors signals something very interesting as to the use of these books. They have been the favorite literature of "taken women", i.e. the non-feminist readers, who need to find confirmation of ideologies they have been taught since early childhood: YOU are the ultimate prize of the love game in Patriarchy, not the helpless victim to the ruses of men. Even though you may seem to be suppressed by society, you will always win because you, morally and in other ways, are the one who score the highest.

The predictable storylines of formula fiction is not a coincidence, but what it's all about: Get hold of a confusing world which not always takes too kindly to women.

Hands And Shoulders Telling A Story

 

No, that's not normal! Also, what's not quite "normal" - or at least common - is the tRumpian "body twist" when he is delivering a speech of some kind. As far as I can see, the twist starts at his waist and then goes up, making his shoulders move in a sudden jerk/twist. It's surprising that a twist may be part of flirtation, whereas the "jerk" may signal a medical condition that needs treatment. Is he flirting with the audience? Yes, of course he is, as he is out to seduce them into electing and supporting him. When I see him performing his special twist, I see it as something insincere or even traitorous in his speeches, but that may be taking the interpretation a bit too far - may be ....

This photo depicts a hand gesture that's common in people who want to point out their authority. That seems to be the favorite hand gesture of Elon Musk, but as can be seen, tRump uses it too. However, often he cradles his right hand in his left hand as if he wants to protect it. That cradled, and thus protected, hand has quite often been seen with weird disfigurements looking like some kind of bruises, which indicates a medical problem of some kind. Anyway, the cradling looks like his special way of giving himself comfort, and it's interesting that that hand gesture is more common in him than the "stapling" of fingers that signals the wish to exude authority.

Elon Musk and his habit of finger stapling looks more genuinely concerned with a strong wish for authority than tRump which is a bit surprising. Maybe he doesn't feel as secure and powerful as he wants to come out to the public - and to tRump? 
 

Max Ernst

Hands are unique body parts, giving us and our "cousins", monkeys of all kinds, opportunities to make an impact on the world as such. As everyone with a loving dog knows, paws may be quite nice, but they can't compete with a hand when it comes to altering what makes our world work. Also, paws come short when it comes to body language which is both good and bad: They may be tell-tale traitors ....

The "Smartest" Person On Earth?

 

William James Sidis (1898-1944)

This mathematician has often been referred to as the “smartest person who ever lived on this planet.” According to his sister, a psychologist estimated him to have an IQ between 250 and 300. Records of his childhood told about how he was able to read newspapers at 18 months, spoke several languages at an early age, lectured at Harvard at age 12, as well as invented his own language. The invention of the language doesn't impress me the most, as I think many kids do, or attempt to do, something like that. However, not many lecture on four-dimensional geometry at Harvard at the age of 12 or write four books as a child. In 1914 he graduated cum laude, 16 years old.

OK, he was a genius, but somehow it didn't come to much in the long run. That is, not much as to an academical career, because he seems to have been very diligent in his studies, and he published many books and articles under various pseudonyms as he hated being in the focus of the public. 

His many topics ranged from Native American history, urban transportation systems, mathematics and cosmology. He often felt that he and his ideas were not understood by his contemporaries, and I suppose he was right. Living in seclusion, even extolling it as necessary for him, makes it more understandable that he ended up a penniless office clerk and not "The King of Academics" he seemed to be born to become. He didn't fit in, and may have been depressed.

In 1944 he died from a brain hemorrhage, which may have been brought on by his legal troubles after suing "The New Yorker" for a story about him, "April Fool", which he felt was humiliating by pointing out his lack of success after having been a child prodigy.
