I'm so over the main gimmick but i adore boob-girl's blushes and squiggle mouth reactions. I'm in it mainly for that.
And I guess you read Playboy for the articles, hm?
d( ͡~ ͜ʖ ͡°)
Does that joke even work anymore? I mean, nowadays, internet porn is easy and ubiquitous, so if anybody reads Playboy, yeah, it probably would HAVE to be for the articles. ;p
Well, once upon a time, there were great articles and interviews in Playboy. Also short stories & comics by really good authors. Perhaps that's still true for the magazine today? I have no idea...
But, as for the naughty stuff, this is what wiki has to say:
In October 2015, Playboy announced that starting with their March 2016 issue, the magazine would no longer feature full frontal nudity. Playboy CEO Scott Flanders acknowledged the magazine's inability to compete with freely available Internet pornography and nudity.
However, Playboy announced in February 2017 that the dropping of nudity had been a mistake, and furthermore for its March/April issue reestablished some of its franchises. Also, in the July/August 2018 issue a reader asked if the print magazine would discontinue, and Playboy responded that it was not going anywhere.
So it would seem that, yeah, the naughty pics are an important sales point for the magazine. Even in Internet times. Go figure. 乁( ⁰͡ Ĺ̯ ⁰͡ ) ㄏ
