I mean, Republicans do it continuously, it goes with the sexism and conservative Christian pandering.

Really didn't expect it here, though.

I’ve often commented on a thread from its title without reading the entire message. From the tone of your message I thought that might be the case here.
While “this is a case of men sexually objectifying women through soft-core pornography” would be an obvious conclusion to reach, I think the far bigger story here is that a traditionally male, sexist outlet is using a transgender person to fill the role of that “perfect female body.” If this model wants to use this method to shout out to society that she is 100% female and should be accepted as such, that is fine with me.

Although I'm not sure which is worse: sexploitation or trans-sexploitation! It's like intersectional 'sploitation, you know?

Hef was very progressive on LGBT issues.

That's what Playboy has been selling since its inception.

We're probably not too far away from a scantily-clad male model or "celebrity" posing on the cover.
