Line 25:
** In [[The Eighties]], the U.S. government attempted to slash funding to have ''Playboy'' published in braille, effectively getting rid of the one segment of the population that ''really did'' read it for the articles.
* [[Moral Guardians]]: As noted below, ''Playboy'' has long been a favorite target for both fundamentalists and feminists. The magazine has returned the favor by sniping at them in its articles and editorials over the decades. (In one early 1980s issue, Playboy ran a rather [[Anvilicious]] parody of itself as it might look under fundamentalist editorship.)
* [[Mundane Utility]]: The centerfold photo for November 1972 was used by DARPA's Signal and Image Processing Institute as a "glossy" test image in 1973 for development work on the JPEG image format. [https://www.theatlantic.com/technology/archive/2016/02/lena-image-processing-playboy/461970/ Even in the 2010s, Lenna Sjööblom's photo is still a standard reference image in image-processing research.]
* [[Nudity Tropes]]: Basically most of them.
* [[Over-the-Shoulder Pose]]: In many spreads and covers.
