Playboy

'Playboy' is a magazine mostly for men. It was founded and run by Hugh Hefner in Chicago in 1953.

The magazine is published once every month. It has articles on politics, fashion, sports, consumer goods, and public figures. It also has photographs of nude women which has made some people call Playboy pornographic but it is not^[1]. Pornography shows real sex acts^[2], Playboy does not. Playboy models also do not masturbate or use sex toys in their pictures. Every month, Playboy selects a young woman as a "Playmate of the Month". Readers then vote for who they want to be the "Playmate of the Year" (PMOY). The PMOY issue is usually the June issue^[3].

This picture shows full frontal nudity and is as explicit as Playboy gets. This style of photography is considered tasteful^[4].
