Mark: Boopsie, let's start with the good stuff. I hear you've been spending a lot of time out at the Playboy Mansion! Boopsie: Yes, Hef's a good friend. He's been very helpful with my career. Mark: Really? Like how? Boopsie: Well, like my breakthrough role in "Porky's II." Hef was the one who sent me up for the part! Mark: No kidding. Uh... what role was that again? Boopsie: Third Girl In Shower. Mark: Oh, right, right... Boopsie: I just think it's great the way he supports women in the arts.

People often forget Hef’s altruistic side.

I wonder if we’ll get a Hunk-Ra storyline one of these months…I wonder how many readers will remember the real-world inspiration…

As I remember it, Boopsie was originally cast as tenth girl in the shower, the only actress with her back to the camera.

I’m unsure what to make of Hefner and Playboy. On the one hand, the magazine does exploit women (actually, compared to other men’s mags, it’s relatively prudish), On the other, the editorial stance is quite liberal, including reproductive rights. (Yes, I look at Playboy occasionally, and, yes, I do read the articles.)
