Military To No Longer Sell Playboy, Penthouse; War OK, Naked Women Not

They can handle bullets, but not breasts.

Playboy, Penthouse and other adult magazines will no longer be on the shelves at Army and Air Force exchanges ? a move based on falling sales rather than the result of pressure from anti-pornography activists.

Yeah, right.

The 48 ?adult sophisticate? magazines being dropped are among a total of 891 periodicals that will no longer be offered by the Army and Air Force Exchange Service. Other titles getting the ax include English Garden, SpongeBob Comics, the New York Review of Books and the Saturday Evening Post.

Just last month, Frederick Vollrath, assistant secretary of defense for readiness and force management, reportedly responded to a complaint from Morality in Media in a July 22 letter by saying that a review board had scrutinized those magazines and determined that ?based on the totality of each magazine?s content, they were not sexually explicit under [federal law].?

The group ?Morality in Media,? which complained last month about these magazines being sold to the military has declared this ?a great victory.?
