    Playboy has featured its first transgender 'playmate' centrefold !



    Men's magazine Playboy has featured its first transgender 'playmate' centrefold in its November issue, a move which
    the model hopes will pave the way for "all women — trans or otherwise — in fashion and other sectors".


    Ines Rau, a French fashion model who was featured nude in a 2014 issue of Playboy, is the first transgender model to appear as a
    centrefold in the magazine's 64-year history.

    "Every woman's beauty deserves to be celebrated," the 26-year old said.
    "No-one deserves to be a woman more than those (trans women) who routinely suffer abuse and are treated like they're less than nothing."

    Rau, who has previously worked with the Balmain fashion house and Vogue Italia, said Playboy founder Hugh Hefner had personally chosen her to be the magazine's first transgender playmate before he died at the age of 91 in September.

    Do you think Playboy featuring its first transgender 'playmate' will lead to a more inclusive fashion industry? Join the discussion.

    Playboy first featured a transgender model in 1991.

    That would be the death of "Playboy", if it hadn't died years ago.

    Right, that's it, cancelling my subscription immediately!

    Oh wait that's right I don't have a subscription. And if I did I'd only read the articles.

    Meh, as you were Playboy. Move along nothing to see here!

    Not least because for years the've been featuring mostly women who owe what noteriety they have to a plastic surgeon anyway.

    Presumably this won't make the slightest difference to beach ball enthusiasts like cujo

    They just need to be careful with those Christmas special shoots by the fireside.

    That will be a bit weird.

    Nope, that'll be some sexually confused, repressed and closeted type who gets triggered over this sort of thing which is really an expression of their internal angst and turmoil over their own furtive feelings and consequently they lash out over something they've not even bothered to actually fully comprehend...







    ...Oh.

    As a lad, I always preferred Reader's Wives.

    But who cares about Playboy? Who actually buys porn mags these days? Plenty of free tits and fanny to ogle on the internet.

    That's interesting, did not know that.

    Complex, complicated, and somewhat self-contradictory character was 'ole Hef.

    She has a male face. Not particularly attractive either. There are many more beautiful and feminine transgenders than this one.
    I can remember a time when playboy had standards, and a half decent motoring column.

    There used to be a monthly digest of letters, each trying to be more sexually avant- garde than the last one. Can’t remember the name of it. Anal and bdsm apart, it was actually fairly tame.
    Again, all freely available on the web now.

    "Readers Wives"

    That was "Fiesta" and a few more jazz mags. Always had to be careful as a lad, working up a head of steam towards the centrefold that you didn't lose your thumbnail, and end up blowing your wad over some blurry fat ginger slapper from Colchester. Or "Exchange & Mart".

    Just looks like a south Asian bloke with a nose job, wig and make-up, basically.

    Whatever turns you on, I guess.

    I remember that the best advertising rates for top shelf mags were from Goldstar Publications. I always got the best rate for advertising in their 'GangBang Grannies' magazine.

    To anyone who knows more about the 'Model' in question.

    Pre-Op or Post-Op?


    Oh, for the record, I've got no issues with Katoeys or Fem boys, they are Thai like anyone else.
    Have chatted to a few, though, no-one I know I'd call a 'friend'.

    For me, just keep the crazy ones away ... some do seem to do a bit of gear or maybe it's the hormone treatments they take?

    The Gf's, Sister's, Boyfriend's, son/daughter is one.
    Never met her/him, though, from all reports, is a lying, thieving bitch ... just the type I try and avoid.

    Was that 'Forum'?

    There was a small format (like commando comic size) magazine that one of my school pals said we should look at and furtively got a copy down from the top shelf in the newsagents.

    Full of readers letters about sex escapades with their wives/girlfriends!
