That’s so extremely sad.

I’m an immigration attorney. Dollars to donuts, this woman would NOT have qualified for a U-visa if she had the misfortune to live in my state. Because you have to get a law enforcement official to “certify” your U-visa and most law enforcement officials around here routinely refuse to do so. Even if you qualify under…

I don’t even have the words to describe this fuckery.

I know this man. He is a violent drunk, racist, and an all around awful person. He is not fit for children.

Great article. I have done, and am still doing, pro bono work for immigrants who are victims of domestic abuse. In my experience, the prosecutors are usually good at telling the women about u-visa and the VAWA self petition. However, I believe under both of these options, the woman has to actually agree to prosecute…

I rolled my eyes at that, but I’m not going to assume that means he’s fine with date rape or Bill Cosby. Because not only has he written editorials about date rape and the need for consent, but an awful lot of women took Quaaludes precisely because they made them horny.

Oh, my goodness, no! If ever we “crack up,” it’s because we’re charmed by the eccentric reading tastes of some patrons (e.g., a patron who regularly requests novelizations of a certain early 2000s-era teen drama series that aired on the WB). I don’t think I’ve ever witnessed any library staff person describe a…

It’s still such a huge power imbalance even if they’re all using each other. One man, lots of women. They’re using him for his money (which will accumulate over time), he’s using them for their youth (which will decrease over time.) But they’ll all bury him so that should cheer them up some.

You all say that. Then you get all snippy about one late return...

I’m a librarian. We don’t care what you read—we’re just happy you’re reading. Promise :)

It always creeped me out that he was so insistent that they were his “girlfriends.” Stop writing those checks and see how friendly those girls are...

I never watched Girls Next Door and care nothing about Playboy models, but will be reading this book. If I can get over my shame of someone at the library knowing I want to read this book.

It was bleak then.

The link says Hefner also tried to get her to stay with him by putting her in his will. Don’t you guys think at this point Hugh Hefner must feel a little degraded knowing that all his child brides are just waiting around for him to die and leave them money? (And, if so, GOOD!)

Poor hygiene?

for real, that’s an admission of date rape the creepy old fuck.

i’m shocked she never signed an nda and am interested in the book too. don’t know if i want to buy it though.

Holly Madison always seemed like the nicest and least bizarre of Hef’s three girlfriends at the time.

I know right? My jaw dropped at that.
