Playboy club back after 30 years away................

[ABikerSailor]

Well, even though there is talk in the political world about sexual abuse of young women, as well as the whole #metoo movement going on and many powerful men are leaving their positions as sexual allegations are being brought against them, one bastion of males is now being reopened after 30 years...............................

The Playboy Club is back gents, and it's even coming back with the Bunny costumes with tails.

Hugh Hefner’s Legendary Playboy Club Has Reopened in New York - Take a Peek Inside

It’s been three decades since the original Playboy club closed in Manhattan, but now, the legendary hangout is officially back. The club celebrated its grand opening yesterday at Playboy's North American flagship location in midtown Manhattan. Although much of the design inspiration came from the heritage of the world-renowned Playboy Mansion, the club has been modernized for a new generation of guests.


Wonder if this is gonna generate outrage from the radical feminists?

They already opened one in London. It's a couple of blocks away from where I stay when I'm in Mayfair.

Years ago Playboy was fun and openly heterosexual and T&A was considered risque. God only knows what Heff's dynasty has evolved into. Judging by playboy channel ad's on Direct T.V. the Playboy empire has pushed the perversion envelope beyond society's limits.

You know, when I was a young man, I often thought it would be fun to go to a Playboy club. Then, I found out it's not exactly cheap to go there and decided that while it might be neat to see all those beautiful women who cater to your (most) every need, but I don't really think that spending a whole month's pay in a single night is worth it. (I say a whole months pay because at the time I was an E1 through E4, and the military doesn't make a person rich.)

The original club was in Chicago. Fuck that New York City bullshit.

Can't you just be happy that they are starting to open them back up again? Give it time, because if NYC is successful, the chances of one opening back up in CA is pretty good.

I can confirm that society has no limits when it comes to perversion and by historical standards, our society is pretty tame. But, you should always have a safe word.

Nothing can go wrong with this in today's hyper-sensitive PC climate...

I went to the one in Atlantic City... Meh.

This is how my parents met ...

When did you go, and how much did you have to shell out? I heard it is outrageously expensive.

OK, then. Just wanted to give props where due.

There is only one major reason to go to this club over others...the female bartenders/waitresses. And I doubt they will be all that attractive (unless they spend big bucks on them - which I doubt).

Back in the day, women had few options to make money off their looks (assuming they did not want to escort/do pornographic movies). EIther they could work in a 'strip club' or waitress. So, Playboy had a large group of attractive women who would work for just decent money to choose from.

Today, it is totally different. If you are a good looking woman, just start an Instagram account and do product placement. Many of them make WAY more than they ever could waitressing...and they don't have to worry about groping hands from old farts.

This model earns more from posting selfies on Instagram than regular modelling

Nope, unless these clubs are prepared to shell out decent money, I doubt the waitresses will look that great. Plus, as rightwinger said above, places like Hooters are better. Their outfits are much more flattering than the old bunny outfits were.
Other than opening night hoopla...I doubt these places will make that much money for long (unless a bunch of old guys go there for nostalgia purposes).

Sadly - I guess - the times have passed by Playboy.

But NYC (not Chicago) is the center of the universe.

Sorry.

I remember paying about a buck or a buck fifty for beer at the time. I was making about $6 an hour

The Playboy Club wanted $7 for a domestic beer. The women were attractive and well mannered. But they really didn’t show that much.

SEVEN DOLLARS FOR A BEER?!?!?!?!?!??

I've been to high end strip clubs, and they only charged 5. That is highway robbery on the sidewalk!

There are a limited number of places these days where men can ogle women without getting arrested.

1. Strip clubs ... the low rent option ... where the women are damaged and you can get Chlamydia just touching the door knobs.

2. Prurient restaurants such as 'Hooters' ... a cleaner atmosphere where the women are smarter and better looking ... but the food is toxic.

3. A 'gentlemen's club' such as 'Playboy Club' ... we'll just have to wait and see if the offering is worth the expense.

Of course, for the poor and lazy, we have the Internet.
