Due to Playboy being on the losing end of the tug-o-war between easily accessible hardcore internet porn and Playboy’s monthly fee soft core porn, Playboy has decided to rework the angle of their TV channel. Since research shows that women control more cable bills than men, Playboy wants their channel’s new direction to be focused on more intimacy rather than just sex, although there will still be pornography (I mean it is Playboy).
This is just one of the many changes Playboy has been making in an effort to attract a female as well as male audience. They have been selling jewelry, clothing, and houseware under their name for years, and who could forget those Halloween costumes? They promise to feature “un-enhanced body parts” and “various body types“, and hope that this will make the brand more accessible across the board.
Does this change the way you think of Playboy? Will you be giving the revamped channel a chance?

I still don’t like Playboy, even with those changes. *shrug*

Ok,Playboy can go somewhere. Porn is still porn, regardless if they make it look “less like sex” and more intimate.

By “different body types” they mean “varying degrees of thin with giant boobs.”

@needmoreink@xanga - Hahaha, too true.
I’m not much of a porn person myself. I lay in bed with my boyfriend, and we have sex.
And it’s pretty awesome without porn.

@HisKeiki@xanga - @l0veBabyx@xanga - @needmoreink@xanga - amen to all of these! I seriously laughed aloud when I read the article. It’s not called Playperson, it’s PlayBOY

@CeriseCheri@xanga - LOL…yeah, I’m with you on that. We rented one once and it was so stupid that we were both just cracking up through the whole thing.

@needmoreink@xanga - Hahaha I know exactly what you mean! Like their facial expressions and their sounds are just ridiculous. None of it is close to realistic, so it’s like watching a movie with Seth Rogen in it. Makes me laugh

@TulleSkirts@xanga - Hahahah i LOVE you for that.
@needmoreink@xanga - he was probably only cracking up b/c YOU were there ;p

This is NOT going to work. Most women aren’t interested in porn, especially if they’re with someone.
What I did find interesting though is the “women control the cable bill” statement. Here’s the thing, woman control.. everything, especially involving a relationship. We have the vagina, we make the rules.
