That was just a quick resource. My research is done mostly through other means than the net. Yet you failed to present that "evidence" you unearthed. I would just LOVE to see this so-called "research" you did on the matter.

Not a big fan of any of them. But really not a fan of Hustler considering they had a huge roll to play in child molestation becoming so wide spread. They also worked closely with Kensey in the 60's and he helped with that too. Dude, if you can't even get his name right (Dr. Alfred Kinsey, not Kensey) it calls your other "research" into question. And since Kinsey died in 1956 and Hustler was first published in 1974 it's a bit hard to imagine how they worked closely together in the 60s.

With apologies to the wonderful playboy models I know (and have shot). I don't prefer any of them.
I find them all boring. Not the style of photography I like. Not the style of porn I like. Frankly I'm surprised anybody actually *buys* magazine porn/skin any more.

Of the three, I prefer Hustler, more specifically, Hustler Taboo. Practically fell in love with the first Taboo issue I saw...

As for the OP, I find much better and more interesting work on MM than I do in any of those magazines. A simple browse of portfolios in my region reveals more creativity and diversity than the histories of those three magazines combined. Of course, MM lacks the articles... but it has forums!

Links please. Your word is no good after your hyperbolic claim.
And who the heck is this Kensey you're referring to?

Depends on who's doing what to whom and why.
I don't buy any of them; unless a model I know is in them, or there's an article I must have.

There's no mention of statistics, it's just a list thrown together by a bunch of nuts working for an uber conservative magazine threw together.
The author of the blog that you used to 'source' your 'evidence' from also goes on to lambaste the list for including Sexual Behaviour... when it obviously has no place being mentioned there.
On another note who is this Kensey guy that you keep talking about? Did he know Alfred Kinsey or something?
Generally, when I research something ITRW, as you say you almost always do, I find it helps to at least be able to spell the name of the person I am researching in order to find any relevant material. I guess when you just make stuff up it's not as important though.

As she posed alone, I'm not really sure how that is molestation.
Also, she was a fairly well known porn-star widely though to be above 18 years old for a long time before and after she posed for Penthouse, so it's not like Bob Guiccione went out of his way to cause 'child molestation to become so wide spread'.

Playboy had a girl under 18 pose really recently... I forget her name... blonde very fake boobs. Like 2007.

even the blogger in the link posted makes fun of some of the choices. 
including the inclusion of "The Kinsey Report"
and Larry Flynt was 6 years old when the first Kinsey Report came out

Penthouse, because I read on the internets the other two magazines kick puppies.
Honestly, all three have had their strong and weak points. Penthouse had a period of absolutely exceptional photo work. Playboy had a period of absolutely exceptional journalism. Hustler's publisher has been instrumental in the advancement of freedom of speech. But I haven't bother looking at any of them in years.
