Whatever goes on between a man's ears is a convenient way to sum up the content of Playboy. Prominent among its features are the pictorials, which showcase women ranging from the girl next door to world-famous celebrities, but also includes sports, entertainment, politics, social trends, developments in the areas of sex and romance, short fiction and compelling articles on behalf of a wide variety of subjects.

• Pictorials: Featuring the world's most beautiful women, as captured by some of the world's most talented photographers.
• ManTrack: New cars, sporting equipment, technology, furniture, travel destinations and other consumer goods.

Bill Richardson, Arianna Huffington, Bill O'Reilly, and Thomas L. Friedman); and a shorter, lighter interview called 20Q (recent subjects include Danica Patrick, Charles Barkley, Jack Black, Fergie, Paul Rudd and Rachel Bilson).

Playboy delivers news-making and substantive journalism like "Death and Dishonor," the story of the brutal home-front murder of an Iraq War veteran that was the basis for the movie "In the Valley of Elah," and "Gunning for the Big Guy," an exclusive look into the story of BALCO and the illegal use of steroids in baseball.
