Report: Playboy Producer Sues Over Sexual Behavior, Racial Comment

A former producer for the Playboy Radio show "Night Calls" has filed a
hostile workplace lawsuit claiming she was subjected to a sexually and racially
hostile environment, TMZ reports.

Did she not realize that she was working for a pornographic company? The pornographic field is not known for its restraint. I am sad that she felt like the environment was hostile, but she might have thought about that before she signed on to work for Playboy. (In any capacity)

Playboy and other "harder" magazines do nothing to benefit this already oversexualized society. (I would even say, in part, thanks to Hugh Hefner and his kind) While they can be apealing to many of us males, the men in us should stand up and do what we can to keep our minds and marriages pure from this. And we must protect our children from this garbage. I would not want my son or daughter to think this is acceptable reading material.

And please, don't give me the "I just read it for the articles". No, you don't. Let's be honest here. I know in the past, that is not the main reason I looked at it. Maybe one, but not the first. And I am certain that is not the main reason the majority of males "read" it.

The objectification of the women is sad as well. I would not be happy if that were my daughter in there. However, that is someone's daughter in there. Or someone's sister. Ladies, please save what is precious, for your husbands. Don't share it with everyone. Men, honor the women in your lives and honor their modesty and purity.

I was just listening to a podcast from Todd Wilkins at http:www.issuesetc.org It was very appropriate in light of this subject. He was speaking to Rebakah Curtis Author of "Hey, Good Lookin'". She had written an article called How Girls Dress. (I have noticed my fatherly protection instincts have kicked in something fierce- that is strange for me-in a good way).

Two things stuck out for me 1) girls today are not okay just being pretty or even beautiful; they want to be considered hot. And 2) she mentioned how the purity issue is for both male and female.

Girls need to not feel like they must dress (or undress) to be popular or liked by the opposite sex and guys' purity needs to be protected because we are stimulated visually (thus the appeal for pornography being more geared for the male) and girls, particularly Christian girls, need to be mindful that guys thoughts are easily manipulated toward the sexual. I have not completely finished it, but it is good so far. I believe the link is below. Check it out. It may not be working- go to the Issuesetc website above and do a search.
