Feminists have led the backlash against Playboy mogul Hugh Hefner claiming he treated women like 'consumables.' Critics have called the magazine publisher, who has died aged 91 at his infamous $100million Beverly Hills mansion, a 'sleazeball who made millions from the objectification of women.' Award-winning film and TV writer Alex von Tunzelmann wrote on Twitter: 'Surely the sexual revolution had far more to do with readily available reliable contraception than porn?

Wasn’t Gloria Steinem a Playboy Bunny?

If he treated women poorly it is because they let him.

I know of at least one female who evidently wishes she could have been a Bunny: Abby Huntsman.

On Fox ‘n Friends this AM she breathlessly described Hefner has a “legend.”

For once I actually agree with the FemiNazis—Hugh Hefner was a loathsome scumbag/dirty old man.

Having realized that I just agreed with FemiNazi Scum, I must go home now and shower and burn my clothes.

The Playboy Foundation funded Planned Parenthood and other pro-abortion organizations, including fabricated, made-to-order front groups like "Catholics" for Choice.

The point? Enabling both women and men to reject simple human decency, even if it's over their own child's dead body. Equality? Equal hell for equal hubris.

Check back in about 15 years when the plastic surgery has gone bad and the VD has taken its toll. I wouldn’t touch those skanks with a 10 foot pole. Not even my worst enemy’s 10 foot pole.

And every one of them saw what Playboy did for the careers of Pam Anderson and Jenny McCarthy.

For every one that would drop out, dozens would beg to replace them.

Philosophical Lesson No. 4231: So long as it’s consensual ... being such a “consumable” is usually pretty good.

I don’t remember any playmates with gun barrel marks on the foreheads.

I never met a woman who didn't greatly enjoy being a "consumable." Go figure.

I don’t know if Hefner saw them as “consumables” - but he was keenly aware of their expiration dates. :)
