Hugh Hefner Dies at 91

Anonymous
Say what you will about Hef but you cannot deny that he had life that was well lived. I am very jealous of people who can look back and say I did what I wanted to and was successful at it and I made a ton of money and met lots of interesting people.

At age 45, this is not gonna happen for me.

He did more for women than any woman here!


Correct. This is a brief article summing it up:

Women used him for fame and fortune. The usage was mutual. Each benefited and got something they wanted.

This is not the same as abuse.

I agree. We can't believe that women should have the right to do what they want with their bodies then decry men when women do it.

Didn't all these women do what they did with him willingly?


Women desperate for money aren't on a level playing field with men who have tons of money, power and influence.


Women may finally find themselves equal to men in all areas when they decide to stop acting like perpetual victims. Take responsibility for decisions. These women made a choice. They weren’t oppressed or victimized. To suggest otherwise implies we are weak.

Except studies show 85% of women in the porn industry were sexually molested as kids.

So pretending these women were not victims making horrible decisions due to the result of complex PTSD would make us ignorant.

I don't think that the decision to pose for tasteful, nude pictures in Playboy is the same thing as starring in a porn movie. I highly doubt that 85% of the women choosing to pose in Playboy did so because they had been sexually abused. They did it for the money, the fame, the fortune, the status.

It's really demeaning to take agency away from these women.

Careful, your privilege is showing.

Let me just guess: you are white and upper-middle class, and have been your whole life. You have never known what it is like to be hungry or homeless.

Hungry, homeless, druggie and hooker women were not who Hef was interested in air brushing for his skin magazine.
