What can I say? I have subscribed to Playboy for over 40 years. Every subject imagineable is likely to be in the magazine eventually. The women are more beautiful than ever, and the interviews are always interesting. No magazine covers more topics than Playboy with insight and intelligence. I particularly enjoy the Playboy advisor and 20 questions.
