... In 2000, Hugh Hefner and the Playboy empire already seemed like a toothless relic. Yet as Madison writes in her new book, “Down the Rabbit Hole: Curious Adventures and Cautionary Tales of a Former Playboy Bunny” (Dey Street), life behind the mansion walls was darker than she could have imagined....
Then Hef approached her, bent over and opening one hand to reveal a bunch of pills nestled in an old tissue.
“Would you like a Quaalude?” he asked.
Madison was mortified. “No thanks,” she said. “I don’t do drugs.”
“Okay, that’s good,” Hef said. “Usually I don’t approve of drugs, but you know, in the ’70s they used to call these pills ‘thigh openers.’ ”
Looking back, she writes, that was the moment she should have left, never to return: “It doesn’t get much creepier than that.”....
Very quickly, Madison learned that everything about Hef’s life — and the lives of his girlfriends — was an illusion. The mansion itself was in grave disrepair, the carpeting stained with urine from his nine dogs. Most of the bedrooms had cheap, outdated and beat-up beds and dressers, and some of the girls taped over vents so they could smoke crystal meth without getting caught....
The girls played power games with each other but ultimately were pawns in Hefner’s larger game: He thrived on keeping them all at war, because it allowed him ultimate control....
She saw a shrink behind Hef’s back, and she came to realize that Hef picked women who were already vulnerable — herself included.
“We were all young,” Madison says. “He wasn’t interested in women over 28. None of us were from a big city or affluent backgrounds....

I saw an interview long ago in which Guccione agreed with you, calling Hefner a bore and a creep and a “dour sybarite.”
Hef’s term was ‘thigh openers’. Path to least resistance by doping them up. That still qualifies as date rape.
Give her 5 shots of tequila and its still the same thing. Rapey.
Bill Cosby strayed from the plantation. That's the reason he was eviscerated by the media. They'll only provide cover for you while you're their plantation lap dog.
Don’t be ridiculous, asking a female if she wants a drink or a drug, or a hit off your joint, is no form of “rape”.
And no, not forbidding your date to drink Tequila with you, is not “rape”.
You sound as patronizing as the Muslims, about adult females.
That is the stupidest defense of the serial rapist possible, and Cosby never strayed from any plantation, he is a serial rapist, and a dedicated leftist, who despises republicans as racists.
Cosby is a big Obama supporter, a lifelong democrat, despises republicans and has called them racist, and was a promoter of the Tawana brawley rape hoax.
From newsbusters: Bill Cosby Rants Against Republicans, Compares Them to Segregationists for Not Applauding Obama
By Matthew Sheffield | March 5, 2013
Unless he had just eaten a bad cup of Jell-O pudding, it would appear that actor and comedian Bill Cosby seems to really, really hate Republicans.
The veteran entertainer made that very clear Monday morning when he claimed that Republicans not applauding President Obama’s State of the Union address in unison with Democrats were “as bad as the people who were against any kind of desegregation.” He also wondered aloud about whether or not Republicans today are upset that slavery is no longer legal.
Cosby made these remarks on the CNN morning show “Starting Point” after soon-to-be-former host Soledad O’Brien referenced how much better things have gotten for those of African ancestry inside the United States since the 1960s civil rights movement.
The famous comedian and longtime Jell-O pitchman rejected her statement.
“I don’t think so,” he said. “Not when you look at the president’s speech recently. To see people sitting down and then they there are others standing and cheering. I don’t think it’s difficult believe. I think that we have people sitting there who are as bad as the people who were against any kind of desegregation.”

I think it’s dumb to say is it time when we stand and say the pledge of allegiance, for which it stands. Where are you going with this? Where are you going with the promise of what the United States of America really is?
It’s also interesting that this Republican Party is not the Republican Party of 1863, of Abraham Lincoln, abolitionists and slavery, is not good. I think it’s important for us to look at the underlying part of it. What is the value of it? Is it that some people are angry because my people no longer want to work for free?”
How many ludes did it generally take to make them comply? And amplified with liquor?
Ludes were a date rape drug of the 70s. The Mentors even joked about it and called their music “rape rock” for when your gal has passed out from too many ludes so you rape her.

There are drinks known as “panty droppers” that are high alcohol too.
Women do claim that they are not in their right mind to consent to sex when they are thinking impaired.
So you are on the board with Whoopi Goldberg saying it isn’t rape rape since the women (even 13 year olds) know what is expected when you take some qualudes and have some wine and are in the hot tub of a celebrity.
Why don’t you pass a law making it only legal for men to have a drink on dates, or at parties, or in nightclubs, or in public, and forbid females to have alcohol if males are present, or might be present within 24 hours of alcohol consumption?
You are a mental case aren’t you?
Look at the insanity (and total dishonesty) in your post.
You seem to be on drugs right now.
Do you realize that you are talking to the guy who pointed out the difference between a woman being offered a drug, versus Cosby secretly slipping drugs into females, to rape them?
Bill Cosby's crime was to have the audacity to point out that the black community needed to fix a lot of their problems themselves through stronger families, something anathema to Democrats, who want government to control every aspect of family life. I certainly don't condone or defend the allegations against him, but what's the difference between what he's been accused of and what Bill Clinton has been accused of? Yet, I don't see the media going after Bill Clinton.
LOL...so it's being acceptable makes it right ?
Adultery is still a sin against your wife and yourself...
I might add if it wasn't for the Puritan experiment in religious freedom, this country would far, far different...
LOL, no it wasn’t, did you even read post 85?
Cosby is an important democrat and Obama supporter, who is big in the democrat party, in holding events and fund raising.
This sounds like your hero being hated by the left?
“The Massachusetts Democrat (Ted Kennedy) was honored at the Kennedy Center at an event hosted by Bill Cosby, The Associated Press reports. Actresses Lauren Bacall and Bernadette Peters, singer James Taylor and conductor John Williams were among those who performed,” Newsday reported in March 9, 2009.
It wasn’t a few words in that little speech that made Cosby settle out of court in 2006, for his 2004 drugging/rape, a case that brought forth 13 more Jane Does to testify to his rape and assault methods.
By the way, how does you goofy national conspiracy, work?
That’s hyperbole
Ive known plenty women voluntarily took ludes etc to get high or loose etc
A buzzed woman is not so by default raped or coerced
I’m not going to go back and forth I know how Puritan some are here about sex and live to find a way to blame men
It’s pointless I’ll never convince you otherwise and I’ll give you last shot at me as a courtesy to womankind
Tks
Happy Fathers Day
Guccione loved Kathy many years and was devastated by her death from Uncle Charlie
Already done by Izabella St. James in “Bunny Tails”
At least she went to Law School afterwards.
Save you the trouble of reading either book.
Playboy is a made up world where everyone is out for something.
Holly wanted to be Mrs Hef and didn’t get it.
What does thigh spreader mean to you? Sounds like Spanish Fly only it doesn’t make them horny, it makes them woozy. Not knockout drops but still something specifically to lower inhibitions.
If the woman was hot for him in the first place she wouldn’t need to lower her guard chemically.
You are an angry troll and I see you hassling posters on every thread about 88 kinds of bullsh!t.
I don’t care what you write. You are who you are and that is an ahole
