truth on hold Posted October 13, 2015 Posted October 13, 2015 (edited) They're completely right. Internet has changed everything. Nudity is a net loss of subscribers if you have good content. Maxim has the better model. Edited October 13, 2015 by JTSP
Best Player Available Posted October 13, 2015 Posted October 13, 2015 No big whoop, I always bought Playboy for their awesome journalism.
KD in CA Posted October 13, 2015 Posted October 13, 2015 Stupid decision. Playboy is hardly 'porn'; it's little more than provocative poses anyway. Who is going to buy the magazine with this change that wouldn't buy it before? Let's have a contest to guess the date this thread is bumped back to the first page after Playboy announces the return of 'tasteful nudes'. I'll say May 3, 2016.
mead107 Posted October 13, 2015 Posted October 13, 2015 Just got to go to Wal-Mart to see everything.
Just Jack Posted October 13, 2015 Posted October 13, 2015 But how will I get my fill of "Girls of the [fill in the blank] College Conference"?
Pete Posted October 13, 2015 Posted October 13, 2015 WTF? If I want to see sexy women with clothes on I will look at a Victorias Secret catalog.
BuffaloBill Posted October 13, 2015 Posted October 13, 2015 They have to do something .... Look at the loss of subscriptions. They are right in that the Internet has fundamentally changed the genre. They may be seeking to flip the brand to interest women.
Azalin Posted October 13, 2015 Posted October 13, 2015 What the hell are we supposed to do when internet access is lost, or there's a power failure?
IDBillzFan Posted October 13, 2015 Posted October 13, 2015 Stupid decision. Playboy is hardly 'porn'; it's little more than provocative poses anyway. Who is going to buy the magazine with this change that wouldn't buy it before?\ Yep. You'd think they'd remember what happened when the new Coke was introduced. There may be ways to fix Playboy, but less nudity is certain not one of them.
ExiledInIllinois Posted October 13, 2015 Posted October 13, 2015 What the hell are we supposed to do when internet access is lost, or there's a POWER FAILURE? Viagra. Cialis.
Azalin Posted October 14, 2015 Posted October 14, 2015 Viagra. Cialis. That's all well and good for you, but I live alone.

BUFFALOKIE Posted April 9, 2016 Posted April 9, 2016 What the hell are we supposed to do when internet access is lost, or there's a power failure? Wash a load of towels. That's all well and good for you, but I live alone. Take a friggen shower and go somewhere were there is a chance of meeting someone.
Nanker Posted April 9, 2016 Posted April 9, 2016 WTF? If I want to see sexy women with clothes on I will look at a Victorias Secret catalog. They're doing away with that too. Just think of the thousands of acres of trees these two publications will be saving!
