I think you're giving too much credit to the sanctimonious rhetoric of
certain feminists.  Their complaints about "objectification" and
"unrealistic" sexual images and fantasies are, as far as I'm
concerned, just another form of repression.  Fantasies are unrealistic
by definition, and as long as PLAYBOY's models are informed,
consenting adults, they are not being objectified.
