Trivia
Longtime gay rights activist. In 1955, Hefner personally agreed to have Playboy publish "The Crooked Man", a science fiction story by Charles Beaumont, in which a heterosexual man is persecuted in a world populated by homosexuals. When critics attacked him for publishing such a story, Hefner replied "If it is wrong to persecute heterosexuals in a homosexual society then the reverse is wrong, too.".
