Really? And you know this becasue?
brutal!
Because I am a straight man, of course.
Because most women are not visually stimulated. They are emotionally stimulated. Thus, reading a book about some heoric stud resucing them is far more of a turn on that seeing some naked gay guy on the page of a magazine. Psychology 101.
As a woman who bought a copy of Playgirl thinking her favorite actor was naked in it, it's a waste of time. I don't know of too many women who like the naked pics of guys BUT I will bet that if Playgirl just had the dirty stories and advice columns in it, they'd sell just as much. So freeper hitman is correct in his assessment of PG mag.
