I've subscribed to the magazine for several years now, but I'm not renewing this year because I'm sick of them featuring "nude" celebrities where you don't see anything. The last issue I got featured Tara Reid on the cover, but guess what, in the pictures she's either wearing panties or posing so you don't see any of her pubic area. Why do they do this? Are they that hard up for readers that they'll agree when a woman says, "Okay, I'll pose nude as long as no one sees my privates"??? And they've been doing it for years now - Rachel Hunter, Jaime Pressley, Daryl Hannah, Shannen Doherty, etc. I know that's how they had to do it in the '50s and '60s, but we've come a long way, baby. Sheesh.  [Link] |

Silly poses, highly retouched photos, scant nudity. If these women don't want to take it off, leave it to others. They ask for big bucks that Playboy pays, but they really don't deliver. It's time to bury it along with the hula hoop, 78 RPM, rotary phones, and such old contraptions.  [Link] |

| Len801 Deactivated User 754 Posts 9/07 | Posted - Feb 1 2010 : 2:05PM In the 1950's, 1960's and 1970's they were a cut above the rest. They were the first men's magazine to feature celebrity nudity (starting with Marilyn Monroe, Jayne Mansfield, etc). They were the first to feature full frontal if I am not mistaken (although it was a black model/actress). They had thw wonderful "Sex in Cinema" series, and every James Bond movie had a pictorial of (unfortunately) lesser "starlets" doing some coy nudity. With the advent of porn in the early 1970's, Playboy lost ground and other upstarts like Hustler and Penthouse pushed the envelope while Playboy stayed its course. With the cost of an an issue of Playboy you can easily rent 2-3 adult DVDs from your local porn/video shop, and considering the content of a Playboy magazine would you throw your money on a Playboy magazine?. If it were to fold, there would not be too many peole in tears. The Playboy cable channel is even less alluring. Stick a fork in it, it's done. [Link] |

In other words, yes for nudity, but no open crotch shots. They want to maintain a certain sense of "modesty". [Link] |

And what hardcore content would they make or you be interested in seeing in a magazine in this day and age? They can barely get a "celebrity" to show naughty parts. What would get you to buy a Playboy magazine if it had hc content? Edited by - Len801 on 2/27/2010 1:32:14 PM [Link] |
| mr_banks Member 322 Posts 6/05 | Posted - Mar 2 2010 : 4:51PM They're more interested in selling pencil cases to young schoolgirls anyway... a cynical move if ever there was one. And the whole "ooo... if only I could get to the Playboy Mansion" bullshit: it's crass beyond belief. Besides, why should I care about a few crappy pics of Tara Reid when I can have Tori Black be a beautiful slut for me any day? [Link] |
