Michael Savage (representative idiot) reacts to the passing of Hugh Hefner

This much-admired moron unabashedly reiterates the typical, typically stupid, human female heterosexual's usual complaint against depiction of pretty young women's bodies: That, the majority of women being fat and ugly, men who have had their desires kindled by the images in Playboy, say, will be repulsed by them (who are fat and ugly--and so won't fuck them). I find it astonishing, and in a certain way rather amusing, that Lumpen Heterosexuals, both male and female, suppose that this is a valid argument (and are not ashamed to argue it) against publishing explicit images of naked, pretty young women.   You can tell that they also think it's a good reason not to publish, or to view, explicit images of naked, handsome youths and men--and they come very close to saying so--before a sense of imminent danger, looming unexpectedly, ties their tongues and silences them.

But of course, Mr. Savage seems totally unaware of the high quality of fiction and political writing published in Playboy--and, in a way (I despair of explaining it to him), I hope he never learns of it.
