Why is a feminist posing for Playboy – again?

When I was asked that question after I posed for the Girls of the Pac 10 pictorial in 2005, for various Special Editions and as Coed of the Month in 2006, I used the excuse that I was working on my women's-studies honors thesis at UCLA. It was a project called "Posing for Playboy From a Feminist Perspective: How Media Images Impact Women's Empowerment." I planned to expand the thesis into a book upon graduation. Although some of my friends and family were unhappy I had posed and my sorority, Kappa Delta, placed me on national probation for making this perfectly legal choice, it wasn't for or because of them that I clung to this excuse. It was more out of a fear of facing up to my decision. I even went through a period after graduation when I tried to escape the big-breasted blonde stereotype by dying my hair. But eventually I realized I was happier as a light, bright blonde who happens to be big-breasted – and that I wanted to work with Playboy again.
