    Not really. 2016 was the worst

    But 2017 isn't much better either

    Who's going to get his inheritance? Or does he even have one?

    I googled it and apparently he figured out everything before he kicked the bucket. Son in charge of the company and the mansion was already sold to his neighbor.

    Ah, an icon amongst those who thought cordial sex would be the destruction of humanity.

    He had a good life though.

    So many childhood memories. The man introduced me to boobies.

    God bless him. He probably needs the rest.

    Hard to imagine a person more hated by both the puritanical right and activist left.

    God bless him.

    Say what? National Geographic introduced me to boobies YEARS before Playboy did.

    I was thinking the same thing for some reason

    Isn't it weird how you think some celebs will just live forever? They never do

    Can you imagine where we would be had he not started the magazine when he did? Some call him the leader of the sexual revolution. Some call him a feminist. He gave to charities. IMO, he was an amazing human being. Not to mention he gave millions of young men their first images of naked women that they filed in their spank bank. #RIPHugh

    Omg he was NOT a feminist, that’s for certain. Misogynist, sure.

    *kitten*.

    His mode of feminism was outdated by NOW, for sure. Most of his ideals about sexual liberation are hardly controversial now, except among the puritanical right. But he was unquestionably a feminist. He stood up for womens' rights, empowerment, and sexual liberation at a time when women were expected to shut up, stay in the kitchen, take care of the kids, and take a good beating from their husbands now and again. He put women in positions of power in his company at a time when it was unheard of. He also published important articles on race, civil rights, and LGBTQ rights.

    Yes, he had trouble keeping up with the times the last decade or so. Progressivism evolved beyond him, he could have done better in more recent times. But to deny the contributions he made, the revolution he fueled, is foolish.

    Well said.

    I saw somebody on Twitter last night say that if Hefner had died just 10 years ago he would have been remembered very differently. I think that's unfortunately true.

    My only hope is that people listen to the millions of women lamenting his passing and praising the ways he made the lives of women better, fuller, freer.

    Agreed, excellently put. Context is important and for his time it made incredible waves for women and there are negatives for it now but the movement he made is undeniable.
