Feminists lead backlash against Playboy mogul claiming that he treated women like 'consumables' [tr]

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? And Hefner didn't invent porn.

LOL you are the one who is truly crazy in your determined effort to excuse a sexual predator. As a 30-year married father of daughters, I naturally defend women. YES Hefner’s playmates made terrible choices! But he is to be condemned first and foremost for taking advantage of them. And that view, on this pro-family, pro-morality forum, is “crazy”?

So, does her father, the former governor of Utah, know that she has this thing for Hefner?

These ‘bunnies’ were free to come and go; participate or refuse to participate in anything HH proposed.

Conversely, the embryo in the womb is not free to come and go; not free to choose whether to participate in a butchering and get their body parts sold on the black market.

But I guess that’s different, eh feminazi’s?

I’ll say one more thing, based upon a long lifetime of experience. The fact that EVERY SINGLE ONE of your posts defended that sexual predator, placing the blame entirely upon the women, indicates some very serious issues going on in your life that you refuse to face up to. As a woman, you should be aware of and sympathize with the complex factors that sometimes mislead the “finer sex” to make poor decisions. Yet there is something dark and foreboding about your passionate defense of a truly evil man.

Another defender of rampant sexual immortality on this pro-family, pro-traditional family values board. If you secretly wish you could have been in Hefner’s shoes, that is your problem - and it is a VERY BIG problem (love to hear your wife’s thoughts?).

I’m confused.

Hefner was all about sex without consequences, and the freedom to have sex with whoever you want, whenever you want, commitment free.

Isn’t that what exactly what the left wants?

What a fraud you are! You boast about “fighting for the truth” (see the below quotes taken from your FR “About” page). Yet when it comes to actually taking a stand against evil, you totally wimp out. All you can do is criticize those who attempt to stand for the truth, admonishing them to “lighten up.” You have ZERO credibility.

Luke 22:16: “Then said he unto them, but now, he that hath a purse, let him take it, and likewise his scrip: and he that hath no sword, let him sell his garment, and buy one.”

Matthew 10:34: “Think not that I am come to send peace on earth: I came not to send peace, but a sword.”

Romans 13:3-4: “For rulers are not a terror to good works, but to the evil. Wilt thou then not be afraid of the power? do that which is good, and thou shalt have praise of the same: For he is the minister of God to thee for good. But if thou do that which is evil, be afraid; for he beareth not the sword in vain: for he is the minister of God, a revenger to execute wrath upon him that doeth evil.”

“Never apologize. Never explain. Get it done and let them howl.” - A British Imperialist

“If you will not fight for the right when you can easily win without bloodshed; if you will not fight when your victory will be sure and not too costly” – Winston Churchill

High lust and froward bearing, Proud heart, rebellious brow— Deaf ear and soul uncaring, We seek Thy mercy now! The sinner that forswore Thee, The fool that passed Thee by, Our times are known before Thee— Lord, grant us strength to die! - Rudyard Kipling

And yet another 'holier than thou' passing judgment on people they've never met...

This from the guy (Snickering Hound) who refuses to condemn the Florida trooper who viciously sexually attacked a child. You ought to be ashamed of yourself!

You are entirely correct in being confused. Supposedly, on this forum, those who participate are opposed to leftist ideology. Yet it appears that many are secret admirers of Hefner, and wish they could have filled his shoes.

That's okay ... stand over his dead body, beating it bloody with your club, if it makes you feel better ...

He's charged not convicted. Except by you.

Look out Peter, there's a freeper that wants to steal your job.

“He’s charged not convicted. Except by you.”

Yeah, like a five-year-old child made up his testimony of horrific sexual assault all on his own. And you rush to the defense of the attacker. And Hefner is to be admired for all the women he had. What’s going on in your life?

"Yeah, like a five-year-old child made up his testimony of horrific sexual assault all on his own."

You have obviously forgotten (or are too young to remember) the McMartin preschool accusations awhile ago. The kids there made up .. or were coached to do so .. stories that were far more lurid and disgusting than this one. And all were found to be unfounded after many lives were ruined by that fiction.

Which is what I was going to say...

Is the deputy involved in a combative divorce?

Wouldn’t be the first time a child was coached by a angry mom.

The McMartin case is unfailingly brought up by the defenders of sexual predators in order to dismiss the testimony of sexual abuse victims. As troubling as that particular case was, it is one in a thousand of instances of minors who suffer sexual abuse.
