    "A dieter's guide to hidden calories", "Are you a slut?", and "Is your mom in bed with your boyfriend?" . . . while Playgirl was obviously sabotaged by its cheesy caricature pictures and clueless board members, methinks that the writing fell into some horrible caricatures of what clueless people think women want to read.

    Or am I wrong? Any Playgirl readers around to comment on the non-pictoral portion of the magazine? #levijohnstonplaygirl

    I have two issues of Playgirl from around 2000/2001, and let me tell you, whenever I'm in the mood for a good laugh, I pull these bad boys out and just flip through them.

    Oh sure, there are some semi-hot guys in it, but Oh My Sweet Joan Crawford, are the layouts just laughably bad. One feature is entitled "Interlude with a Vampire" and has some naked dude acting like a vampire -- complete with fangs and Dracula cape. In one shot, he's holding two very large candles across his chest and attempting to make some sort of scary face. It's quite amusing.

    Another regular feature is some sort of secret woman's fantasy of guys. It's done in black & white & grey, and often features men getting naked and masturbating to women they are stalki-- er, observing. Naturally, the women are in revealing outfits, doing things like cleaning the pool or standing outside the mens' locker room, posing to show off their tits and asses. And sure enough, one of the guys could be straight off a Danielle Steel cover.

    Playgirl failed not because it couldn't get naked men, but because it didn't have a fucking clue what women or gay men really wanted. And it wasn't this fantasy, romance novel ideal bullshit. #levijohnstonplaygirl

    When are people going to realize that if MILLIONS OF WOMEN AROUND THE GLOBE are willing to risk cultural shaming, severe bodily injury, and death itself because they do not want to give birth, NO ONE can stop them from taking those risks, no matter how many damn laws you pass. It's pure misogyny: We will force you to undergo bodily torture for nine months and risk death just to give birth. Oh, and then you're on your own. Fuckers.

    @La Chica Lucy: I have a real problem with this kind of thinking. Pregnancy isn't "torture"; birth can be very safe when it's supervised by a qualified physician or midwife. I think there needs to a be a real effort to curb the need for abortions in the first place and make sure that a much higher percentage of pregnancies are wanted ones. That means making sure that men are taught from an early age that there is never a good reason to rape a woman, that rape is any sex that doesn't involve full consent. Contraceptives need to be made more available and more affordable, and more mainstream so women can choose their relationships based on what's comfortable, not on their financial situations . And, BC needs to be more effective, which can only be done if the money is put into it, and maybe more BC methods for men, too. There needs to be more support for women who do want to keep their pregnancies - more prenatal support, more midwives and OB/GYN's, more flexible career options.

    Abortion should be safe, legal, and rare - rare because women should be able to access resources to prevent unwanted pregnancy and shouldn't be at such high risk to be raped, not because pregnant women are forced to not have abortions. #antichrist

    @Dancingfrog: I know pregnancy can be safe and not all pregnancies are torture. My point is these people do not care about women. At all. If they did, all of the things you describe above (which I agree with) would already be happening. #antichrist

    @Trulymadlyme: It seems that it should be obvious, right?
    I did my senior capstone for my BS last year in "Reducing stigmatization of mental illness among the African American population of Portland" (longest title ever), which really opened my eyes to the extent of the discrimination and lack of cultural competence amongst mental health professionals. There is a clinic in Portland through OHSU that offers culturally competent care specifically for African Americans and Africans as well as SE Asians. I enjoyed working with the providers at the clinic. #antichrist

    @brenbrowning: Maine? Or Oregon?

    But yes. A part of the mental health issues of pretty much every single brilliant African American I knew in college and law school is derived from the fall out of racism. You do deal. But it can sting. And depending on one's resilience, it can be utterly debilitating. It's fascinating work and I'd love to learn more about what you do. #antichrist

    @Trulymadlyme: Oregon.
    My professor for the capstone is an African American man who has mental health issues that went undiagnosed for decades in large part because of his race. Either he didn't fit "the mold" of someone with those disorders, or it wasn't suggested that he seek treatment because within his community there was a feeling of distrust of medical/mental health professionals (understandably!). I took every class from this professor I could as an undergrad and am now applying to do the MSW program at the same school to learn more from him. I am trying to find my place of where I will be able to best serve people of color within the mental health/human services field. It was heartbreaking and infuriating to learn and see how people of color in my community were being treated when they tried to seek help. #antichrist

    'The imagery is "dream-like," which makes it somewhat removed from reality, and thus inoffensive'

    This sounds like the logic that concludes something can't be offensive if it was intended as a joke. I mean, I'd support a poster with an entire ass hanging out. But the "logic" makes me giggle. #antichrist
