He was a supporter of gay rights and equality in general. Yes he sexualized women but he was pretty much obsessed with sex which as far as I know isn't a crime if consensual. Did he start wars or try and control the way people think, no, just made a lot of money off soft porn. He has probably made a far greater contribution to society than many religious or political figures. Everyone knew what he wanted and his motivation in life, so a pretty rare person without a hidden agenda. He lived life for maximum enjoyment basically. Was their any real victims of his life? |
The most noteworthy thing mentioned there in my opinion, and I think others would agree, was being a supporter of gay rights. Somehow this isn't front and center in the news of his passing...why? Maybe because it wasn't his claim to fame...if it's true, and I'll assume it is, that's great.
I will say that's great that he had an unhidden agenda, regardless of what it was. That I truly admire. But I still think that comes second to the agenda itself. I don't think Playboy, the corporation or its mansion, have gay rights at the top of their agenda otherwise it would have been a prominent staple of his brand during his lifetime. What I'm trying to say is that most people like him and his brand regardless of the gay rights agenda.
They like sex and sexy women.
So do I. I can't believe there isn't any backlash against his portrayal. He seems to be a pop star at best, but is treated like royalty
