Segredos da Playboy

Slow at times but impactful to really listen to these women and men talking about the dark side of this business. Too bad so many people were hurt for the sake of selling magazines and making money.

Is it a secret that Hefner's girlfriends got real used to the 'good life', and when he moved on to someone new, the old one had to leave the mansion, and move back into her studio apartment?

Is it a secret that men applied for jobs at Playboy because they "really" liked naked women?

Is it a secret that most men that own a popular business, provide their close friends with perks?

Is it a secret that all prospective Playmates showed up at Playboy ready to bare it all for international distribution, and took off all their clothes the very first day for test photos?

Is it a secret that most women wouldn't pose nude for "any publication"?

Is it a secret that most women regret some of their decisions and actions from their past when they were young and naive?

Any Playmate Centerfold that entered the Playboy Mansion property after she was published, was well aware that she was taking a risk for better or worse. Unfortunately for some.... it was for the worse. Her job posing for Playboy was completed. Why was she at the mansion afterwards?

... If there is a secret... that's it.

I don't doubt the playboy lifestyle was damaging to some of the women. But when one of the women (Zoe) in season 2 episode 2 "The era of the Seven"complained doing her own makeup was hard made me roll my eyes so far back I saw my own brain. The other cringworthy scene was when Izabelle stated she never took the bar after going through law school and earning her J. D. made me want to reach through the screen and shake her. What a waste of an education. They traded on their beauty, and received $1,000 per week salary, a roof over their head, clothing and plastic surgery bought and paid for. SMDH.

This could have been condensed into two hours. After a time nothing new is said. I expected the interviewer to ask the hard questions of those who witnessed assaults, brutal beatings and rapes and did nothing about it, but those questions never came. So much is missed in this documentary. Give us the names of all the men involved. Tell us who in the police department was in Playboy's pocket. Take to task the parents who signed their daughters and their bodies over to Playboy when they were still minors. We see women of all ages give their accounts and notice the ravages of time, drugs and trauma on their faces. Aside from rape, there's another commonality between these women. There's no light behind the eyes, they are detached, uncoupled, gone!

We all knew Hefner would have few if any women interested in him if he didn't have the power to promise them opportunity. He was the hero of incels everywhere. These poor women all look cartoonish.

He obviously couldn't appreciate and love real ladies.

The allegations are shocking but unfortunately, believable. Of course he had to abuse and use women. He had probably been limp the last 40 years of his life and he resented the fact that women were with him for exposure.

I always knew he was a despicable creature.
