Reports Chan: "They mention to me many times this is something to show to their grandchildren." That urge is apparently, widely felt. Some of Playboy's competitors now feature warts-and-all snapshots, usually taken by husband or boyfriend, sent in by women eager to memorialize their assets. "To each his own," says Chan.
