Is playboy magazine still a good read? - GoFuckYourself.com

I remember growing up hearing men say they bought it for the articles and I always thought that was such bs but now not so much. Just watched a documentary on hef and playboy and had no idea he put so much focus on the writing part of the biz. He just used naked girls to sell his content cause he knew that would sell.

just a hint

the writing "classy" part of playboy got Heff more high end, high paying advertisers that would not touch other adult magazines.

looks like a shitty lad mag format http://www.playboy.com/world-of-play...-magazine/usa/

playboy used to have some killer interviews and article in the 70s. those days are long gone.

Were I you and wanted to know if Playboy was still a good read, I'd strongly consider going down to the local bookstore to buy one but you do what you like.
