I saw excerpts from her uncoming "memoir."

 

Does she realize how BAD she makes herself look?

 

Granted, the whole Playmate situation is bizarre, but she sets back the Women's Movement by about 150 years!

I read an excerpt of her book online this morning.  She says she was young and anxious for fame.  The story she tells sure doesn't paint Hef in a good light.  He comes off looking like a foolish old codger who all the playmates would tried to avoid intimicy with.  Holly said that she really doesn't care what he thinks of her book nor does she want to ever care speak to him again.

The Women's Movement is about having choices...even choices other women wouldn't make.

Ok, here is my problem with her excerpt.

 

I didn't watch a lot of their reality show on E! but enough to know she kept dogging him to have a child and potentially marry her.  Whether this was part of the dialogue for the show or not I do not know but she owns it.

 

I was shocked when I saw the excerpt on PageSix.  Nice of her to use Hef when she literally had no where to go/live and now dump on him when she no longer needs him.

 

Please know I find the whole thing disgusting but still  . . . . own it.

The few excerpts I've read didn't make her look bad in my eyes, but it made Hef look bad. They also made one of the other girlfriends, Kendra, look bad, but she's always looked bad in my eyes. Can't believe she got her own reality show.

I dn't think that having a relationship with an old man you don't even like (and faking it with all his other girlfriends)

I don't think that having a relationship with an old man she didn't like or respect (plus faking acts with his other girls) is anyway to make a living.

The Women's Movement is about empowering women to stand on their own two feet - make lives and careers for themselves - NOT  to resort to the oldest profession in the world!

ITA.

She hated having relations with him, yet she was desperate to have his baby???

Makes no sense to me at all.

I watched quite a few seasons of the reality show and she's one fine actress. I truly bought into her love and devotion to him and she sure seemed happy and content. 

 

Of course, that's reality tv for you!

 

I read Kendra's book and got the basic 4-1-1 on the real scene there but Holly's book sounds pretty intense. 

 

I bought it and will download to my Kindle as soon as it's released!

Well, when you look at how many women were and are willing to give that to Hef for free, the fact that she was able to make such a living out of it shows you just how empowered she was Smiley Wink
