        If Hugh Hefner didn't create the Playboy ethos, men like Weinstein would have found another excuse.

        It was the silence of 'celebrities' that allowed Harvey Weinstein to act and do whatever he wanted, to whoever he wanted, over the years.

        Hefner did not invent sexual assault/rape. I've never heard allegations against him. Weinstein is responsible for his own actions.

        I never could understand why the rich & famous supported Hefners "ownership" of women. No person need feel pressure to give up self identity

        Whilst I find the playboy mansion idea quite disturbing I have never heard anything that suggests any girl was forced to do anything or said no and was ignored. That's the difference between girls making a choice about their lifestyle and allegations of rape/assault

        When the stuff was coming out en masse about Cosby, I wondered why Hefner never was mentioned even though playboy mansion was in play. WHITE

        The problem is that the NYT should have been looking at these stories at least 40 years ago.

        There is no excuse for sexual assault, and blaming Hugh Hefner and Playboy for those disgusting acts is dishonest. If it were the (1/3)

        There is a huge difference between sexual abuse/ rape and women choosing to be part of the Playboy culture...
