Anyone watching Secrets of Playboy on Vice

[XanaDUer2]

I'm getting nauseous. My only Playboy experience was going there as a wee kiddie, eating, having Shirley Temples, and beautiful, costumed waitresses.

Playboy Hefner and his cronies and friends were monsters. TRIGGERS

roman polanski, cosby, jim brown, my former idols, were raping and beating young women up at the mansion, and so-called "shadow mansions". I feel like I'm going to vomit and I'm just filled with rage.

1. A bad combination.

A bunch of men all horned up by looking at photos of naked women. Many of them are celebrities who subscribe to the notion that they are entitled to grab women. Plenty of cocaine and alcohol.

2. Watching it is difficult

TRIGGER WARNING OF SEXUAL VIOLENCE

Jim Brown strapped a woman into a ex chair and was beating and brutally raping her witnessed by two employees. Claims Don Cornelius kidnapped and raped two sisters. Hefner knew all this and let these men back for years.

3. Just did a search to see if anyone was talking about his.

How is this not a bigger story? It's a nightmare.

What is wrong with these men?

4. Misogyny

I agree. Why isn't this on the news? A british tabloid did a story on paige young. This should be on the news.

I loved cosby as a kid. Did you hear the blonde woman describe how he drugged and sodomized her and then sent her a ficus tree?

5. And the way these women refer to "the first incident" and "the second incident."

The one who who spent a lot of time at the mansion as a little girl had the description that tore me up most. To paraphrase: they said this was all about liberation. But it was really about taking young girls and pushing them farther and farther to just break them down.

6. Id love to know who raped Miki Garcia

She said he did the car show circuit and is still alive. He was a celebrity, but must not have had so much clout bc she denied him models and a big friend of hefners she couldn't have done it.

8. I may be remembering wrong, but something made me think he was a high level politician.

[XanaDUer2]

10. I thought she said he was an actor

On a popular TV show.

[Scrivener7]

14. I'll go with your recollection. The monsters are all blurring together in my head.

16. I've seen this series several times

In pretty sure. I have a candidate or two in mind. Redditors are sleuthing, but cannot come up with a definitive

[Scrivener7]

7. But seriously. I can't think of an answer to "why didn't this series make a bigger splash?" Can you? The R. Kelly one

took the world by storm. Harvey Weinstein, once it finally came out, was all over the news. This one came out 2 years ago, and I just stumbled on it on Hulu, having never heard of it.

I wonder if it is quietly going away because just about every American man participated in the exploitation in some way?

9. I don't know

Its explosive. Now i look at every actor of a certain age i liked and think what did they do? Everyone was up at that place in LA. Except politicians at least openly i guess

[Scrivener7]

12. Me too!

19. Where are you cross posting so I can bookmark?

[Scrivener7]

20. Here. They may kick me out of GD, but I'm curious to see if anyone has an answer.

11. And Oh. My. God. Roman Polanski. Will someone please just repeatedly shove a steak knife in his eye?

[XanaDUer2]

13. Yes they showed a clip

Of him saying he knew her age.

[Scrivener7]

15. And he was obviously quite pleased about it. Disgusting little worm of a man.

[Scrivener7]

17. I really am curious about the reaction to this series. Would you mind if I posted about it in another forum and

referenced this thread?

[XanaDUer2]

18. Please do!

I do think it need to be spread far and wide
