Once so powerful - too bad these guy with all they had couldn't do much better - they would've made more and still have it probably. Sad way to go.
Hugh Hefner was a sleazy creep behind the scenes

Is anyone shocked about these revelations, or doubt they are true? I mean, the power structure there is ripe for abusive behaviour. Hefner got a bit of a pass because he supported so many good causes, like the equal rights amendment or civil rights. But, he treated women like objects. He allowed or was abusive in the mansion. Women were raped by guests at his parties, and it was covered up. Some of the scum were always invited back, regardless of their bad behaviour.
I mean, I know we've all probably wanted to be him at some time....he banged some smoking hot women over the years...But, he also sort of seemed pathetic as he got older...

Different culture back then.....
And the girls would put up with shit to get introduced to celebrities at the parties or get made PMoM and parlay it into a modelling career?
Overexposure to sex makes it more difficult for a man to become aroused. This also applies to porn addicts, vice cops and the guy who schleps beer cases in a strip club.
Once upon a time, young men could get a chubby from looking at bare breasted African tribal women in National Geographic, or underwear models in a Sears catalogue. Those no longer do the job, after a man sees Playboy. Playboy no longer works after a guy sees Penthouse. Penthouse usually doesn't work after a man sees video porn. It's a one way street to Pervopolis; once you past a sign post, there's no turning back. People who never travel at least part of this road never post on TERB.

I agree, but key word is over exposure.
And in the world we live in, nonstop sexual imagery is just a click away. Then it becomes like old factory fatique. Work in the cheese factory long enough, you don't even smell the cheese any more.
Like all things in life, all in moderation.
Everything's a click away, JT. Model train enthusiasts can view each other's train sets 5,000 miles away. I can look up the population of London in 1845 in 30 seconds. I can see a .jpg of every painting Van Gogh ever painted in 2 minutes. I can read the latest Supreme Court decision without driving to the law library. I can look at pretty much any sub-sub-sub-sub variety of hardcore porn I want in 20 seconds.
It's a helluva lot better than the pre computer era where I had to buy a Playboy magazine for $5.00 to see a few tittie and muff photos!
"One click.away" is completely superficial and unsatisfactory. Do you remember how the Playboy used to smell like? How about the excitement of sneaking into a porn theater? I can look at the pictures of my favorite downhill run....and? I can look at the great art on the fucking computer, but it's ZERO compared to looking at it with your own eyes at the gallery and then walking out for ice cream and cognac on the patio by the Seine.
Apparently an actual fluffer 'n wuffer. According to the story. Which I disbelieve.
The murder of Dorothy Stratten shock up Heffner big time. Till then the bunnies had some freedoms, after August 1980, that ended.
Heffner found Pam Anderson near the same neighbourhood. There are many here who consider Pam Anderson hot, she's dog meat compared to Stratten.

My first playboy I got, I must of been 12 or 13 had Bo Derek in it. Very Nice as Borat would say. It sounds better when you hear it in the original Klingon.
Heffner tried to get Star 80 scrapped.
He may have gotten away with it if it was a green director. Bullying Bob Fosse worked about as well as Harvey Weinstein attempting to bully Al Pacino.
Heff knew when to draw the line, he didn't live as dangerously as Weinstein.
