Does anyone buy playgirl magazine? Support Apolyton, buy GURPS/ Alpha Centauri

I always see it sitting on the shelves of 7-11 convenience stores and other convenience stores, but I have never seen a woman buy one. Or for that matter I never see men buy playboy magazine as well. I know they have to sell, or they wouldn't have them.

Who buys these things? I suspect that only gay men buy play girl magazine, I don't think women do. If women wanted to see that stuff she could just go up to a guy and ask him. He'd show his stuff. No I think only gay men buy that magazine. They should call it playgayguy.

My girlfriend has a couple copies. I would guess that women do actually buy it to one degree or another.

Kind of a sexist attitude

The demographics from readership studies show that the majority of readers are female.

And as to your other comments... I guess if a guy wanted to see that stuff, he could just go up to a girl and and ask her to strip, and she would

And maybe the reason why you don't see people actually buy it is because most people are embarassed about buying it... and wait until nobody else is around to see them buy it

And on the old troll scale... .00000001/100

It is disqualified from being a troll, ming, as it is a topic that no one ever in their right minds could possibly get riled about.

That's why I gave it such a low troll rating

but even if it has a rating of .00000001 out of 100 Ming, that still is saying that it is a troll, when it is not, howeer pathetic it may seem. I am saying that it is ratingless!

There's plenty of porn material in various forms of media that is truly gay-oriented, so we don't have to rely on Playgirl, even if some gays do buy it.

You can just let your girlfriends, fiances, and wives have the magazine all to themselves as far as I'm concerned.

Yeah, I read it once or twice. It wasn't all that good.

Then again, Playboy is pretty tame as well. In fact, all of the American publications have nothing on the Europeans or the Japanese.

(Japan - a society where a painting that shows the nape of the neck is considered "erotic", but which shows depictions of people engaged in coprophilia, bestiality, and sadomasochism in the margins of clothing catalogues.)

Come to think of it, I've never actually seen anyone buy *any* of the magazines on the checkout line racks. Maybe only the employees buy them after the store is closed...

The ones that they advertise on the anime cartoons late at night. You have to watch closely because they are very short commercials. One blink all night, and you miss it... Keep your eyes peeled at all times!

@ Asher

At first, I read the same thing! And then I said "hmmm.. I didn't know Dissident was gay." But after I re-read the title, I saw my error.

Dissident's got a point. I'll often put on a raincoat and clown wig, and then I'll go to the local convenience store and huddle by the magazine rack's "erotic" section. Every time a woman walks into the store I'll stare at her and start humming tunelessly to myself while I slowly rock back and forth. I've been doing this for years, and I've yet to see a single woman buy an issue of Playgirl. It can't be a very popular magazine...

hehe, now I have more dirt on Tiamat

and Ming, if a woman walked up to me and asked to see my goods I would show her.

But it seems whenever I approach women and ask to see them naked I get slapped.

She didn't actually buy it herself, she had somebody else do the dirty work.
