Penthouse, Playboy, or Hustler?

"Statistically the FOURTH most harmful book to humanity??" REALLY? There were only THREE books written, including MEIN KAMPF, that were more harmful than his research on human sexuality? REALLY? I mean... REALLY? I bet you were one of those people who CHOKED when Janet Jackson showed her nipple at the Superbowl halftime show for a SECOND. You really have to be kidding me.

You read of GCW without me even asking. Oct 06 10 02:40 pm Link I'd have to say Playboy because I think they just have a classier presentation and I don't need to see as much detail as the gynos and proctologists of the girl's in Hustler or Penthouse need to, to do their job. But I have to say, as good as it is, I've been bored to tears for years over the same predictable lighting and look of their pictorials. With all the amazing photographers out there, they'd do themselves a huge favor in mixing it up to breath some new life and surprises in their photography. Yes, I know they occasionally bring in guest photographers for some pictorials, but you gotta admit the art direction and their photography has been a one trick pony for a long time.

Oct 06 10 02:42 pm Link I love how threads downgrade to something else after 2 pages. Started with a model asking what 3 porn mags are more preferable and now is at incest and next will be on wallpaper for your bathroom...

Just because I am concerned with the places that a mag is leading our country doesnt mean i am a prude... Oct 06 10 02:59 pm Link Hustler, of course. Hustler is politically engaging and critically deconstructing. Of course I read about how people here on MM are scared of Kinsey's researches. I was not surprised by those remarks. "Lies my teacher told me" is still a bestseller, and for good reasons. Oct 06 10 03:04 pm Link The one that has the most hot naked women between the ages of 18 and 19.

Your not getting the name or even decade of publication correct, so what are we to assume about how familiar you are with this work or how informed your conclusion is. Oct 06 10 03:08 pm Link Interesting question...but the magazines are not the photographers...I think Arney Freytag, Suze Randall and Ken Marcus alll do great work. Suze did a lot of work for Hustler...more explicit than Playboy...but wellshot and well executed. I think HHef can be very critical and tough to work for. Kudos to all 3 for producing foor a very demanding boss. In sum, you need to judge the magazine photography by the credited photographer, and all those magazines have had some great photograppher work for them.

Frankly I don't think they hold much sway over many people these days. Oct 06 10 03:12 pm Link and hustler, for the irreverent, low brow philosophy although the over use of saturation in the phtos is kind of hard to take Oct 06 10 03:13 pm Link Patrick Shipstad wrote: 99.9% of the time Oct 06 10 03:20 pm Link The Studio Place wrote: incest is against the law? can you cite which law that is please? Oct 06 10 03:24 pm Link I can barely stand any of them.. they are way too retouched. May as well just read a porn comic. Oct 06 10 03:24 pm Link Playboy. Of all the major publications, I think Playboy is the only one that strives to show the models as pretty and/or beautiful. I can't remember them trying to show a model as being an object or a gynacological study. I must subconscoisusly emulate them in my own work. I have had a continuous subscription to Playboy since the 2nd or 3rd year they started and my wife and I used to be somewhat regulars at The Playboy Club. Do you mean to tell me they have articles? Oct 06 10 03:25 pm Link Yeah - I think all of those magazine are horrible and the people who shoot for them are the worst photographers ever. Especially me- Im the worst! hehe -Jose Look- the truth is there is no clear cut line anymore. I have shot pictorials for Hustler that are far less explicit than stuff published EVERY month on Playboy News stand Special Editions or Penthouse. So you really cant base your decision on whether you find a vagina offensive or not. However, if hardcore boy/ girl style photos are offensive to you- then you should definitely not check out a Hustler b/c there will be some of those pictorials as well as some less risque nude solo girl pictorials.

Oct 06 10 03:30 pm Link hmm well i think playboy and penthouse have the same style of photography now pretty much since its calmed down but penthouse has alot more naked chicks..which is better i think and hustler...i dont like at all Oct 06 10 03:31 pm Link Playboy has always sucked to me! way to much airbrush and makeup!! Oct 06 10 03:31 pm Link I have worked with all three companies . . . I won't comment on the content of each or compare them. However, I will say that out of all three, I was treated the best by Penthouse. They respected my work as art, and afforded me the greatest artistic leeway to do whatever I wanted to do. Hustler (or Taboo magazine) has been extremely professional in their dealings with me. They are very corporate in their approach and demand excellence from those they do business with. Playboy has the reputation for being classy, however the photographers are treated like plumbers. When your sink is clogged up, you call a plumber. That is the way that Mr. Hefner has always treated the photographers . . . call one in when you need a photo and ignore them the rest of the time. During the years that I shot for Playboy, Hefner had shown that he never liked photographers and didn't invite any of us to his parties, except to work. KM Oct 06 10 03:39 pm Link 18+ Link (Contains open leg- be warned- definitely though less risque than stuff on MM) - -> http://www.joseluisphoto.com/lfpsl/ That link is a pictorial I shot for Hustler May 2010 issue. It is in no way more graphic than what you see every month in Penthouse. If you are a Playboy Cyber Club member or buy their News stand Special Editions- you see more explicit photos all the time. Also, in terms of quality- you may disagree- but I think the work speaks for itself- and it speaks in a very positive way. The truth is- all of these magazines sometimes have strong and weak pictorials. Same can be said for Maxim if you are looking from a pure photography perspective. -Jose Oct 06 10 03:41 pm Link Art is collected by people , hung on walls or if lucky shown in a gallery or museum. Sometimes of great $ value, most often not :-) Commercial photography, can and often contains aspects of art, but in the case of the publications noted is glanced at, enjoyed, thrown in a pile or hidden under a mattress, and its main reason for existence is to get the better part of a $ 10 bill out of ones pocket or a subscription. Thus the mindset of a photographer who wishes to pursue these publication should always keep in mind why such publications exist = $ FA Oct 06 10 03:53 pm Link Penthouse, half class, half smut, right between Playboy and Hustler. Plus, the cartoons are funny. Oct 06 10 03:55 pm Link I wish they wouldn't photoshop the models' faces so much in those magazines. Plastic skin is not sexy. Presumably, that's why you get good-looking models to be in adult-oriented magazines.
