Last month, Cory Jones, a top editor at Playboy, went to see its founder Hugh Hefner at the Playboy Mansion. In a wood-paneled dining room, with Picasso and de Kooning prints on the walls, Mr. Jones nervously presented a radical suggestion: the magazine, a leader of the revolution that helped take sex in America from furtive to ubiquitous, should stop publishing images of naked women. Mr. Hefner, now 89, but still listed as editor in chief, agreed. As part of a redesign that will be unveiled next March, the print edition of Playboy will still feature women in provocative poses. But they will no longer be fully nude.

This would be like Popeyes still selling combos but instead its grilled chicken.


Why even fricking bother ?

Great opportunity for another magazine to take Playboy's place.

They're going to do it Hilary Banks style and use tastefully placed clouds.

You can find nekkidness at the click of a mouse, and much more graphic than anything Playboy shows, so there's really nothing groundbreaking about having nudity any more.. I guess they're trying to attract more female subscribers or be able to sell it in more locations.

Why would anyone buy a Playboy anyway? All the photos of their women and a hell of a lot more are a free Google image search away.

This is just a last desperate grasp, but ultimately it's just delaying the inevitable.

I don't keep track of how it is now, but playboy used to have some really legit writers. I know they had Hunter S Thompson at least.

This is like wanting to read Paige post about West Virginia University's 3-3-5 defense.

Bingo. They do actually want to be like Maxim. People can easily get porn anywhere nowadays.

To all of the people booing this, when was the last time you actually read or even purchased a playboy magazine?

Why not do it?
