Probably best that it die. But, yes, it used to be ‘clean’, with beautiful girls and risqué humor. I never subscribed and haven’t looked at one in decades, but when I was younger, I enjoyed “reading the articles”. PB was always preferable to Flynt’s smut and the even worse garbage that is out there.
Yes Playboy was several cuts above Penthouse which looked cheap and was more risque. The Larry Flynt magazines I never opened up....maybe three times. They were degenerate like him.
