" I have been surprised to find that a lot of women would want to be somehow validated as a Maxim girl type, that they'd like to be thought of as hot and would like their boyfriends to take pictures of them or make comments about them that mirror the Maxim representation of a woman, the Pamela Anderson sort of brand. That, to me, is kind of extraordinary."

--Ed Needham, editor of Maxim

"It was her first scene ever, so I was like, 'Don't worry‹just follow my lead...but then the scene started, and the way she was giving a blow job and the things she was saying and the way she was moaning‹I was like, 'What the fuck?' When I was 19, I was not giving blow jobs that were nearly that exciting. The girls these days just seem to come to the set porn-ready."

--Pornographer Joanna Angel, quoted in Details Magazine, September 2009

"The number of women who will just sit on a condom-free, erect penis without any kind of announcement or discussion is just shocking. They would just go for it: no latex, no discussion of STDs, not even 'It's okay ­ I'm on the pill.' Dude!"

--Isaac, as quoted in Details Magazine, September 2007

"I was in Toronto recently, and Toronto is like being in middle America. And you've got very hot, young, 18- to 20-year-old girls with tongue studs and they are simply, publicly advertising that they are interested in and capable of giving you really good oral sex if you're interested. And that's not even designed to be shocking."

Movie producer Brian Grazer, quoted in the New York Times September 2004

"The girls that are available to us and this industry are much prettier than they were in the past...I think they're less concerned about taking their clothes off. In the early days women were very concerned about taking their clothes off publicly. But today it seems so much more natural. Somehow there's much less resistance. A lot of the girls are more interested in doing it because they believe it can be helpful to their career in show business...there's so much benefit in controversy today where there wasn't before."

- Bob Guccione, October 1999

"Hef likes to talk about how Playboy gave women freedom, freed them to be sexual," she writes. "I think he means that it made it easier for guys to get laid."
