Bottom line: Saying that putting trannies in the centerfold of Playboy didn't cost the company readers is beyond brain-dead stupid.

If you go buy an issue of Hot Rod Magazine and find Martha Stewart shit inside, you're not going to buy that magazine again. Same thing.

Well, 2 and 2 doesn't make 5. Unless of course it's to fit your narrative.

Indeed, Mark lacks critical thinking skills.

When it comes to knowledge I'd rather be woke than asleep.

Online porn and the coronavirus.


Well, Playboy’s circulation started declining steadily in 1975.
The circulation went from 5.6 million in 1975 to 210,000 in 2018.

I guess if they had a transgender person as a centerfold it was a last-ditch effort. But from the circulation history it’s appears that was not the cause of the decline. Nor was online porn or Covid.

Point is, to say that SI or Playboy went out because they were “woke” is nonsense.

Playboy's circulation dropped over 20% between 1980 and 1985. That's when video tapes became widely available.
It dropped nearly 50% between 2005 and 2010, after the buildout of the internet.
Dropped 70% after the tranny issue.

Where did you get the 70% figure?

Just now saw your question.

As Mark previously stated:

At the top of the page on the link above is a chart that shows the circulation of Playboy over the years. The steepest decline happened between 2016 and 2018. Playboy did the Tranny centerfold in 2017.


That drop was from .7M to .21M, a 70% drop.

How could people be so stupid, to not realize that a magazine known for one thing..naked photos of very attractive women..would destroy itself when it showed a naked man pretending to be a woman.

And then that gives rise to..”so..I don’t get it..what happened?”

Ditto for a swimsuit magazine of very attractive women that starts showing ugly or fat chicks on their cover.

Oh gee whiz..whatever could be the problem.

It could be almost anything. But, probably climate change.

It would be interesting to know how much of the decline happened prior to the end of 2017.
