I am young software engineer, with not much interest in sports other than martial arts and stuff that involves shiny objects with powerful engines in them (Yeah, ok I stole your line D00d. Queen bite me). I have a good idea of what the media thinks the mainstream wants to see, and also am quite aware of how they delude us into believing what we see has anything to do with the truth. Having said that, I am obligated to mention the fact that my longest lasting relationship with Playboy has came to an end.
Back when I spent my High-School years working at Wal-Mart or Amoco, Playboy was the only possible way to pass time. How, you will say, could you look at naked pictures while working the cashier? Guess what, I didn't. Free and much better porn has been available thanks to the internet, so why in gods name would I bother with R-rated material? Playboy IS porn, after all. Don't give me that jumbo about it being 'beauty' and etc. Its not. I find no beauty in women puffed up in silicon and shown in vibrant lights that make them look like plastic dolls. Some statistic I read a while ago said every guy thinks about sex once in 15 minutes on average. Fine. But I don't sit around fantasizing about plastic dolls. I think about real women. Thus, Playboy fails to me as a source of imaginative inspiration.
Darva Conger's pictures do nothing but prove my theory. That b*atch to me looked quite plain with bleached hair and a lined face, but I may have chosen her too due to the way she was advertised. She was a middle age nurse, and a family gal. After all, you are not picking her up for a one-night stand, you will marry the women. My late grandpa used to say, "Never marry a woman too beautiful, otherwise you will always leave your mind at home.' Welp, the way this lady has been touched, she looks like a 3 dollar porn star. That works for some, but it unfortunately fails for me. She lost that natural attraction when she first played innocent by pretending to be annoyed by a simple kiss.
At any rate, Playboy knows that internet is bad for its magazine business. So its understandable that they try to get celebrity figures to pose for them. They still keep their articles interesting, but than I would much rather get a cheaper magazine with similar articles and no nudity. At this point, the only way I will ever look at Playboy again is if its free. I am not saying it a terrible magazine, but its just that there are too many other options to chose from. And, buying a causal men's magazine means you can also read it in the subway.
