Sure I would; what the hell.
I guess I am the only one that wouldn’t.
Yes Yes Yes
I would, if only because I find the premise of the song “Centerfold” by the J. Geils Band so very intrigueing. I would always wonder who was looking at it and kicking themselves for not asking me out in HS.
Now, why would I want to put Playgirl out of business?

Hmmm. As long as they promised to be generous with the airbrushing, sure.
At MY age?? Hell NO!!! But when I was in my teens 20s and early 30s? Heck yeah.
Of course I would! I mean, no way would Playgirl want to publish a 6’ , 140 lb. scranny weakling like myself, but if the offer came, I would take it.
Almost definitely. I think it’d be sort of amusing to think that guys I’ve never met all over the world are whacking off to my picture. Plus I’ve always sort of wanted to do it.
As far as showing the issue to friends and family, eh…I’d probably let them know it exists…and I certainly wouldn’t try to hid that I’d done it. By the same token, I wouldn’t want to shove it down their throats. They already complain that I talk about sex and the sex related too much; flashing my my Playboy spread around would probably push them over the edge.
I’m with you, BNB. I wouldn’t.
StG
Can’t see it ever happening, but sure. I wouldn’t go showing the photos to everyone, but I would defenatly let the people at work know. I like to keep up the “strange guy” persona I have going. I would also let my parents know. Knowing my mom she would go buy a copy just so she can tell the clerk where she bought it that the reason she is buying it is because her son is in it. She enjoys being “the strange one” too.
I had the offer to do this my freshman year in college. Although, I wasn’t offered $25k. I was a freshman class senator in the college SGA and pretty popular on campus. It was flattering but I declined.
Posing for Playgirl nowadays requires shaving your pubic hair into a Hitler 'stache.
That rag has gone seriously downhill. And it wasn’t that great to begin with. But at least the men had body hair.
I would do it. But only as I am now (minor airbrushing).
I would love to help redefine the definition of an attractive female body. I have a full body, maybe considered fat by some, but definitely not BBW big.
I am merely not a stick and think that different ideas of beautiful should be portrayed properly.
Well, this guy’s got body hair!
I probably would. I have very few modesty issues, though I don’t always feel, I don’t know, sexual. I don’t really mind being naked in front of anybody, but posing and pretending I felt like a sex object, I don’t know.

Holy hell; of course not. Things like nudie pics of yourself have a way of NEVER going away, ever. I’ll take relative obscurity and not embarrass my family, thanks.
No, never, not for any amount. One, it’s just wrong. Two, I have a family to think about and I certainly wouldn’t want them going around damaging our family name. Three, what the hell kind of example would I be setting for my daughter? “Strip for the camera, honey. Your ass is more important than your intellect.”
yes and I would only show my side of the family- my husbands family would faint.
Sure, as long as I had complete creative control. So I guess not.
