Wish they'd edit out the nude people. Don't really get the artistic merit of it.

They actually have stopped doing nude photos. They said in the modern era in the age of internet porn, still images of naked women can't beat the relentless bombardment of hardcore sex that's desensitizing the men of the world so instead they will focus on tasteful scantily clad women and other content. 10/10 move iibh

Playboy has always been a high quality magazine with great writers: Bellow, Updike, Cheever, Nabokov, etc. Still has solid features and literary fiction. One of the most prestigious short story contests, too.

To answer OP: /lit/ doesn't really do lit magazines. Pretty much only stuff from the canon.

/lit/ is poor and that shit costs like $40.

v good point.

they're different mentalities, really. lit journal readers get to read the best contemporary writers a couple years ahead of time, but they pay a premium, and they have to read a lot of junk, too. canon readers get pure quality, but end up lagging behind on present literary movements. you can do both, of course, but there are only so many hours in a day, and only so much $$$ in the bank.
