I don't think this thread is about prostitutes or whether the Bunnies who slept with Hefner were exploited and objectified (although I think they were).

 

It's Hefner I have no respect for.  I found it creepy that these young woman were promoted as following their dreams.  I also find it creepy that the mazgazine was a famous masturbation tool. 


lol,I think the magazine was meant for a m......tool, so were JC Penny and Sears and Robucks catalogues...

I can't remember who the comedian was, but about 5 years ago someone did a few comments about HH in his stand up routine  ... primarily that he needed to lose the pajamas STAT.  

 

He said when Hef was a young man and wore the smoking jacket that looked like pajamas, he looked sophisticated and debonair.  Nowadays, as a wrinkled old man, he looks like an old geezer that wandered off from his nursing home..  LOL

The Kartrashians didn't need Hef, they had their mother. She's been a great p*mp.

Re: RIP Hugh Hefner

[ Edited ]

I hope that someone releases some of the stuff in Hugh's file cabinets. He has catalogs of things. Everything is dated by the year. This specific room was featured on "The girls Next Door", I think.

Your original post was actually quite scornful of traditional marriage and more conservative values.

And we do have control over our instincts.....those survival instincts that you mentioned are always overriden when one commits suicide. Otherwise people wouldn't die, would they?

I'm not opposed to anyone having a different belief system than my own. That's the beauty of freedom of choice. But I do take great umbrage with being told that having said beliefs is narrow minded. That in and of itself is being narrow minded. I do not have a "membership" with God but I do have an awesome relationship with Him! Couldn't live without Him!

I also have no arguement with you. Hope you have a great day too! Smiley Happy






(my bold)

This statement shows that you don't understand suicide, or depression or desperation for that matter.
