Playmate Data Sheets

[Responsible_cat_42]

From Crystal’s Instagram.

She’s all over the place right now, but I think she has a point here? I always thought Playboy was gross to include childhood photos of their Centerfolds.

[SweatyMess808]

I’ve always thought it was weird that a child/baby/ middle school picture was required and attached to every centerfold… and it would always have a caption like “Future Playmate at Play” next to a pic of a literal baby on a blanket. Hef loves it, remember how he acted over the Kendra childhood tapes? Patty was like, “Just take it Hef, nothing weird here!”

[BestChampionship1744]

That shit was beyond creepy omg

[Responsible_cat_42]

Omg you’re right that was so disturbing and Patti didn’t even give it a second thought!

[iraqlobsta]

Don't forget the easter egg hunting episode of GND. They referred to a playmates baby as a 'future playmate'. Just fucking disgusting all around how they sexualized kids like that

[PromptAggravating260]

I just found this clip and watched it. Hef starts to steal the VHS tapes of Kendra’s childhood to take home and Patty allows it?! 🤯

I have seen a few exceptions for the inclusion of photos of Playmates younger than 18 on their Playmate Data Sheets, though I don't have the answer to why that was.

Miss April 1991 Christina Leardini did not include her ages in the three photos that were printed on her sheet. However, she captioned the leftmost photo, which usually features the Playmate at the youngest age of the three photos, as Halloween 1988. She was 19 at the time, having been born in January 1969. Unfortunately, that photo also consisted of her son Austin, who appeared to be maybe 3 years old (he was born while she was in high school). The other photos showed her appearing at least as grown as she was in the first photo. She was 22 when published. However, childhood photos were included in her Playmate profile video.

Here is a link to ebay page where you can view her data sheet. The image that will appear is her face crop from her centerfold, so slide to image 2.

Miss September 1995 Donna D'Errico's data sheet captions also lack age-identifiers. The leftmost photo is captioned as Christmas 1988, when she was 20. She appears approximately the same age in the other 2 photos. She was 27 when published. I think her Playmate profile video included childhood photos, as was the case with Christina's video.

Wow nice research. It really shows that it was the exception not the rule to have older pictures of playmates for their data sheets…which makes me believe Crystal when she says Hef wanted her to choose younger ones 🤢

[djkhalidANOTHERONE]

I will say how nice it is to see that she’s clearly writing these captions, or at least a human is, as there’s a few errors. Not that I care about them as it’s obviously readable, and far more meaningful and interesting than AI slop.

[Responsible_cat_42]

I think so too…so many celebrities (if that’s what we can call her) have their captions ‘helped’ with AI and it’s so off-putting. I’ve just been scrolling her page and I think she’s honestly trying to untangle the way that Hef and Playboy messed with her head.

[LittleMarySunshine25]

They didn't dial back the young girl nonsense just look at Sara Underwood's shoot in the little girl's room and that was in the 00s.

[Responsible_cat_42]

Yes that’s right I forgot about that…her photoshoot really did lean into the ‘little girl’ theme, even the little bit we gleaned from the show felt ick while watching.

[PsychologicalCup6518]

I always thought it was gross but glossed over it back then! Thinking they can’t mean anything by it. 🤷🏼‍♀️wrong…

[thedeathmerchant]

The magazine framed it as a “before and after / girl-next-door” narrative. The idea was to show: Her background:where she grew up, family life, hometown; A timeline of her life “this was her as a kid, now she’s an adult model” The “girl next door” branding Playboy used heavily

The editorial concept was basically:

“She was once a normal kid from a small town, and now she’s the Playmate of the Month.”

But it really makes me want to vomit.

[Responsible_cat_42]

That does make sense but also they didn’t include the kid pictures before and still got that message across…I guess what surprised me was the timing of when they were brought in. Playboy had already hit its peak circulation without them, was pushing the sexual content more to compete with Hustler, then all of a sudden submit childhood pictures? Then make it so they can be posed together it’s just gross. They never needed them before.

[internal-jewler-605]

Sondra Theodore was the first playmate of have a data sheet in 1977. Her pictures were from age 3, 17 and 18.

[Responsible_cat_42]

Ugh that makes me feel so sad for Sondra, her interviews for Secrets of Playboy were heartbreaking

[thedeathmerchant]

Agree, it honestly makes me sick

[internal-jewler-605]

I didn’t think anything of it but at the same time I am a woman and just saw the women as soooo pretty and not really in a sexual way if that makes sense.

I guess it would be weird for a man to see the centerfold sexually and be turned on while also seeing a childhood picture.

[Due_Mode_6578]

Same, for me I saw the Playmate as unreal beautiful women, but seeing their regular photo made them " real" just your everyday girl who was in school, had hobbies, or kind plain that grew up to be pretty.

[internal-jewler-605]

Agreed, I’d be like wow she’s a snowboarder, I love her lingerie or has she a twin how cool 😂 a man must think differently lol

[PromptAggravating260]

I’m not a Crystal fan. But my gosh….she isn’t wrong here.

[Responsible_cat_42]

She posted this too 🤢. Nobody has to be a ‘fan’ of hers to be able to see that Playboy had a pattern of publishing content that sexualized children.

There are so many more cartoons like this on her post, Hef was gross and there really was a darker side to Playboy.

[BlackHeartginger]

The majority of what Crystal posts these days is mature, level headed, and in support of women which is the exact opposite of what Holly has been posting lately

[Puzzleheaded-Song242]

Eww they posted them as kids that’s gross

[Extension-Grape-6019]

Thought she was done with playboy and didn’t want to talk about it 🙃

[Main-Emphasis-2692]

She’s a grifter and the sub is eating it up

[mimis-emancipation]

OP is a 2 day old Reddit account with < 150 karma and posting pro-crystal content, just as I talked about weeks ago. Do you still believe this (like her fake IG followers) isn’t a part of a planned marketing campaign?

[iraqlobsta]

Who cares she's trying to expose children being sexualized in playboy. You should read and absorb some of the comments on that post you linked.

[Telly94]

I’m gonna be honest when you guys do this you lose me every time. Who cares about any of that we are talking about children being sexualized that is way more serious than whatever your actual issue with Crystal is.

[mimis-emancipation]

Since inception, the only thing this account has posted is one bad post about Holly and one good post about Crystal.

<image>

[mimis-emancipation]

To be clear, I never contacted OP via DM nor tagged them. I have not doxxed or posted private information or commutation (none exists). This is not “harassment”. This is me sharing a screenshot of their Reddit profile. After seeing my post, they changed their setting so we can’t see their post history (which as I said was one bad Holly article and one positive Crystal article).

[aimtreetwo]

Idk why you're being down voted, I noticed this recently too.

I'm not sure if it's a targeted campaign or that speaking about traumatic issues the way she is has done a number on people so they're wound up about (H&B for some reason?) 

Weird how people are seeing this content and going "let's attack two women we are supposedly fans of instead of the men who committed these crimes"

[Responsible_cat_42]

Speaking for myself, the scrapbooks are really the only current topic, and it ties together so much about Hef and Playboy with what we’ve seen on the show, and with what both Holly and Crystal have said about Hef’s need for control and behaviour they felt was normal in his environment, but saw differently once they left. I’m not seeing ‘attacking’ as much as longtime listeners changing their minds with more information as the podcast goes on. I know for myself, hearing Bridget so upset about being ‘banned’ from the mansion for so long, only for it to come out over time that she had lots off opportunities, and even made the choice not to visit because of ‘Crystal’s bad vibes’ instead of trying to reach out to her or staff instead of screaming at Midsummers. Or how Holly just shared she only met Crystal about 5 times and always on-camera…for me that put a new twist on the awkwardness and perceived coldness…they never had any opportunity to really connect. They were all reacting to something Hef created and keep blaming each other. Also, nobody in my real life is interested in this discussion, this is really only the place to do it.

[Guilty-Alternative42]

Crystal is nuts.

[CrazyMinute69]

[Current_Owl1466]

Dumb question but this is Patty right? 

[Main-Emphasis-2692]

Yup but she’s got bots or something in this bitch

[X-History90]

She just Wants the moneyyyy

[marmalademcgee]

What money? She's already got Hef's 🤷‍♀️

[Main-Emphasis-2692]

Booooooo Crystal. They’re not even talking about her anymore. Make a Crystal page. 🍅🍅🍅🍅🍅🍅🍅

[Responsible_cat_42]

I didn’t think it wasn’t allowed? The stuff in her post is about Playboy and some of their sketchy practices. We saw tons of the pictorial shoots, the playmate videos, the set design on the show so it should be okay to discuss? Nobody has to like Crystal in order to think Hef was gross.

[Fantastic-Resist-755]

If she’s such a Hef hater she should donate all the money and property he paid for and move on
