Playboy magazine doing away with nude pics.
 

Per Dan Patrick

lol...why even have a magazine?

WTF

Yep, that's a sure-fire way to destroy a company.

They offensive!!!!

For the "articles," you dipshit Donkey Boy.

Damn dude...:rolleyes:

Hot Rod Magazine to stop showing pics of cars.

should go over well.

But does Hot Rod magazine have "cutting edge" opinion pieces to fall back on? No? I THOUGHT NOT.

Seems a terible decision to me. They owned that space - tasteful porn your wife wouldn't object to. Now they are the new Maxim/Stuff/GQ. That's worked out so well for those guys.

I've heard Sports Illustrated is not going cover swimsuits anymore too.

Offensive to women.

Read they are down from millions to only 800K subscriptions a year now...

They are about done, time has ran its course with them. They really need to rebrand and change the company direction otherwise they will just fade into the past.

Nobody buys their mags anymore and its not a cool as it once was to be in Playboy... They have been irrelevant for almost 2 decades now...

What are they going to rebrand to? They're done. They should just throw parties at the mansion.

The viagra has finally worn off on the Hef.

Sad times we have now. When he turned the reigns over to his daughter that was the end.

My guess would be more of womens fashion and with a touch of politics and sports..

But just to base it around nude women anymore isn't going to cut it in todays " I have to be offended " society...

Sooo..... what about the Playboy channel ?

so we need a new tag for pics from Playboy.

something creative, like "SFW"

Rape culture.

It's not rape if they never see your face..or yell surprise

sung to the tune of the Buggles one 80's hit

"Internet killed the porn mag star"

CP reading/listening comprehension never ceases to amaze me. They're stopping full fronta nudes, not all nude photos which will still continue.

no, they are going PG13. No nudes.

ROFL

Good ol PB...

Holden: Oh my God! Who are you? Larry ****ing Flynt! What are you gonna do with all those?

Banky: Read the articles. What do you think I'm gonna do with 'em. They're stroke books stupid!

Holden: You got like 30 books in there! We're only gonna be gone for 2 days!

Banky: Variety is the spice of life. I like a wide selection. Sometimes I'm in the mood for nasty close ups. Sometimes I like airbrush. Sometimes it's a spread brown eye kind of night. Sometimes it's girl on girl time. Sometimes a steamy letter will do. Sometimes, not often, but sometimes I like the idea of a chick with a horse.

Fear not. You'll be okay:

Good call

They have a point. It's not like it's hard to find nudie pics these days, so it's hard to figure out why one would even subscribe if that's the focus.

To be honest Playboy did always have some pretty good articles. We had a subscription for it back in college, because ha ha its Playboy. After seeing the nudies for a 1000 times, it made for some good reading on the shitter.

So Playbutts magazine? Hey I love me a great heart shaped chicks ass but gotta have some tits and snatch mixed in.

Oh well. Playboy never showed Meat Curtains anyway.

It's because they want to sell magazines in China, a massive new market.

\

they would have created a special edition just for China, as they have for all the other countries the publish in.

Twelve year old boys across America weep....

In two seconds anybody can see the craziest porn you can possibly think of. Who buys playboy?

I'm more shocked that a print version of Playboy still exists than I am about them going with no nudity.

But I tip my hat to Playboy. Those of us who grew up in the 1970s and 1980s owe a lot to that magazine.

This is really going to crush the Sock Industry

I just googled "craziest porn you can possibly think of", and this was the first hit.

I must say that I would prefer Playboy over all of these by a long shot, other than being intrigued by Japanese newscaster porn. But Playboy would still rank #1 on that list.

More great news this week...

Twelve year old boys have the internet. It's like the greatest time to be a 12 year old boy in the history of the world.

I'm not clicking on that link

They can't compete with free porn at your fingertips now ... so, they have to re-invent themselves. Surprised something didn't happen sooner.

Using still photos of naked women to sell magazines is stupid these days anyways. It was stupid 10 years ago too. If they feel that the photos are holding the magazine back from selling more copies, then they should get rid of the photos.

RIP Playboy magazine.

I'm guessing the scratch-n-sniff editions will be a last resort.

So do 58 year olds

If the government wants to find all the deviants in the world, just find EVERYONE who pays for porn these days.

Anyone who pays for porn today needs help......

If your into that crazy porn thing. In my youth it was playboy for the hottest girls but no split bolo. If you wanted split bolo you got a penthouse. If you wanted gaping gash hustler, club or cherry. The scale of how good looking they were went down from playboy in 10% increments.

In our work truck we used to have a box full of field manuals for rainy days till political correctness came along. there was always the discovered filthy discarded truckers porn **** books found along a ditch. Those pages were turned with the end of a 3 1/2 ft long surveyors lath oak stake.

It is funny that womens fashion mags will show more tits and snatch than playboy.

Magazine will be dead in 2 years in the US.

Hopefully they are not doing that for all the countries. Some of those are racy.

if they are smart they need to ramp up their yoga pants fashions. See college coeds and milfs always wearing them. Maybe go more with their porn channel.

i was reading a top 10 facts list on playboy. They were once worth a billion. Now 80 million. Probably much less by next year.



what are celebs trying to stay in the spotlight going to do?

Is the Pope coming back?

I swear that was me when I found my old man's stash in the closet.

So if they're just ditching full-frontal, perhaps they'll be going back to the really early era stuff where they tried to leave a little more to the imagination; the allure was in what they didn't show.

Whatever - let's say they had one more magazine and with that they decided to just blow the piss out of the budget and spend whatever it took to get one last celebrity to break 'em out. Who's your pick?

Alexandria Daddario already showed 'em, so I'm kinda at a loss. In fact, most of the names that spring immediately to mind have already shown them off in film or print. I'd probably just go with something boring like Hannah Davis or Brooklyn Decker. I could be convinced to appeal to nostalgia and go with someone like Brittney Spears, but I'm positive I'd be disappointed as hell. There may be some singers that I'm overlooking.

I remember in college seeing the Patti McGwire edition that made Jimmy Carter "lust in his heart." Man, she was fine. And a Missouri girl too. She ended up marrying Jimmy Conners the tennis player.

Met Patti in Memphis, TN in early 1977 at a car show. I could not take my eyes off her. She was truly the most beautiful creature I had ever seen at that point in my life.

My most memorable edition was Rita Jenrette. She was unlike anything I'd ever seen. It was like being a biologist and discovering a new species of elephant in New York's Central Park.

Oh yeah still my favorite playmate of the year. She was fine from ole St Lou I believe. How nice would have been to have here in your HS class.

dude on the right doesn't seem legit.

i bet they are the kinda Edge that brought us Earth Crisis.

I used to know a few of the Playmates. With the websites they all started and then internet porn, it was clear to see Playboy's time had passed. I contributed comics I drew for Kerri Kendall's site and hung out with her a few times. Weird chick, really weird. I also knew Petra Verkaik and won a breakfast "date" with her in Chicago and got her to come to a Comicon here in KC and we took her out to the Hereford House. A year later, I got Angela Melini to come to the Comicon and she had dinner at my house. My friend Chipp's 40th birthday was the same day, so he got a unique guest for the party.

I haven't spoken with any of them since 2006 and once you see behind all the smoke and mirrors, they really aren't all that special, just chicks who take their clothes off and get paid, but don't generally dance around poles.

Back in the days when Playboy ruled Porn Earth, it was a really big deal when a celebrity went nude. Pretty much the entire country knew about it, and a lot of them saw the pictures.

Now it's not a big deal. I couldn't tell you which celebrities have or have not posed nude, and it's not even worth the two minutes of googling to find out. I think most people will spend that time finding a half-dozen nameless Bulgarian hotties having a lesbian pillow fight instead. I don't know if it's better or worse from a societal point of view, but porn has been fully democratized in the modern world.

Carpal tunnel?

something tells me that those douche bags are wearing knit hats in the middle of summer.

those three posers in that photo wish they listened to Earth Crisis

meanwhile, at night when each of those tools are alone, they're logged into PornHub and beating their dicks like it owes them money.

The pussification of America continues.

those dudes can't be for real.

like when I go to biker rallies and I browse the shirts/patches section. I ALWAYS see a patch that says "I LOVE MY WIFE"


.....LMAO. really?

Or in this case, the opposite.

My dick owes my money..Lots of money.

You know how much that ****er has cost me in child support alone?

New centerfolds for Playboy :D

LMAO

Prayers sent.

I had no idea Playboy still published a magazine.

It's about time. Since guys claim to only read the articles.

I find your presence in this thread curious. What is the origin of your username?
