Well, agreed that people didn't really buy Playboy or Penthouse for the articles. But it was pretty tame compared to PornHub and other online porn of today. You'd see breasts, maybe some pubic hair, but not much more, particulary in Playboy. Hustler was more explicit but none of them showed actual sex; you'd have to go to an "adult" bookstore or theater to find that.

I did. The only Playboy magazine I ever bought contained an interview with Steve Jobs. Unfortunately I lent it to a friend and never got it back.
I had something similar. A friend of mine gave me an issue because it had a Borges story in it. I mean, I looked at the centerfold, but mostly paid attention to the story.
