now I have the same question for Playboy that I have for men who claim to read Playboy for the articles: Why Playboy then? Whatever you think about this interminable controversy over whether porn is pro-woman because it is pro-sex or anti-woman because it is pro-male-power-fantasy, why the hell are they publishing it as "Playboy" if it's not going to include nudie centerfolds? If the mag is just dying to get into the evidently lucrative Indonesian magazine industry, why not create a wholly owned subsidiary that just publishes really great movie reviews of really chaste movies?
1. Why on earth are they surprised to be receiving this reaction in Indonesia, the country with the largest population of Muslims on earth? Are they going to try a Saudi Arabian Playboy next?
2. Am I allowed to be pro-porn yet agree that Playboy should go to hell? In the high school of the porn world, Playboy is the perky cheerleader who intentionally fails math so she's not too threatening to the guys.
Well, ladies. Playboy is actually true heaven calling. I believe that in every woman there's a Playboy bunny just dying to come out a rear it's pretty head. Unfortunately not all women fit the rigorous testing process Hef has for them. Sadly women across America can only dream the dream of having their fully nude body gracing the centerfold. I guess what I'm saying is it's good to let it out girls. Remember, just because you don't fit the criteria, it's okay. You still have the right to breath American air, live among us, and continue with your life. We forgive you.
