@Sunshine45  @on the bay An icon for what?  A useless, meaningless pornographic life?  Surely not someone we'd want our kids to emulate.  Hopefully there won't be another...

He was nothing but a DOM.  EXploited woman to put money in his,own pocket.  CAnnot believe some are mourning this disgusting man's passing.

I think if you can say anything about Hef is that he lived life to enjoy it.  I doubt he 'used' people more than many, many people 'used' him.

I cry if I read about an ant getting stepped on... Hugh Hefner I felt nothing.

I think if you got involved with Hef, you knew exactly what you were doing.  I'm not saying it was moral.  But no one was forced into the lifestyle he led.  In fact many chased it.

Hugh Hefner,

No matter how anyone spins it, I do not think he advanced any cause for women or changed our culture for the better.

I think thte type of young woman who was interested in that lifestyle was one who was insecure, wanted/needed the money and/or attention, or felt powerful and in control because of her sexuality. I can say this because I did some stupid things when I was that age in the same vein.

I always thought of him of being a dirty old man from the start. No loss here in his passing.

Lord, makes me almost wish I had commented on the Jerry Lewis death post instead.
