1 Oh good! I can put this where it belongs. Playboy=porn? Heavens no! A ban makes as much sense as them banning me from sending free cigarettes to people fighting in combat.(It happened, even though I got around it for a time.) I wish legislators could realize that people under fire have other concerns. I do wish that Playboy could see the beauty in women without D-cup breasts. Present beauty excepted, of course. Sure they have them--a few 'tokens' just a few times per year--but still. Doesn't Christie have any say? Or would she exclude herself from her own magazine? Time to open our eyes and take in all the beauty given to us in this world!

2 Someone sometime recently posted a link to an archive of Playboy centerfolds dating back to the beginning of the magazine's publication. I tell you, there was more variety in the early issues, before they settled on the "Playboy Look". And heavens to betsy, women actually had *pubic hair* once upon a time. What a loss...

3 Hm. There has to be a way around this. (1) Have you tried the Victoria's Secret catalog? I know it might leave a bit to be desired, but it has a charm all its own. (2) Perhaps some of the mags devoted to very young ladies? I know they have gross titles--*Barely Legal* and the like--but I imagine they would be less geared toward the voluptuous. I haven't looked at a skin mag in a while (1999 or so?). I must say, I'm surprised that boobies are back. [It could be that I was once young/insecure, and in point of fact boobies never actually left.]

4 One more suggestion for D: how about mags devoted to Asian women? That might help. D.C.--so they've totally nuked the hair? What a pity; a nice "treasure trail" looks great on either sex. Nothing wrong with a trim here and there, but the shaving thing has gone way too far.

5 If it's trimmed enough so it doesn't look like she's got a wiry-haired midget squeezed between her thighs, that is good. But the "Hitler look", the "landing strip", and the completely bald look are just...wrong to me.

6 How about if the hair is shaved around/arranged into a tasteful heart shape?

7 Hey, that's cute. You don't see that very often though.
