All I can think of is a Playboy Playmate of the Month. I can't help it.

And?
What's wrong with that association?
What's wrong with that association?
Playboy objectifies women, and contributes to the unrealistic body image that hurts women. They use to, at least, (not sure if they do any longer), have women walk around wearing bunny ears and fluffy round rabbit tails on their buttocks, and I find that extremely degrading.
I honestly have less of a problem with straight-out pornography than I do with Playboy. At least porn shows both genders doing their thing. Playboy's message is and always has been that women are only good as sex toys for men. That women are only the sum of their attractive body parts, and if they don't have (what's pitched to men as being) perfect, attractive body parts, then said women are worthless.
Bleeach.

Playboy is a pretty loaded association for a lot of people, even if they hold no judgement for the women who pose for it.
I personally would not want people to associate my daughter's name with Playboy because it is so divisive in opinion and I also am fine with saying that I would not ever hope for any daughter of mine to one day pose for the magazine or look up to women who do.
