Recently, I received some mail expressing disappointment, for various reasons, with some of the models we've recently featured in the pages of Gallery. Some of you voiced displeasure with pictorials that feature ethnic women, while others said they dislike models who have breast implants.
Just look around: Ours is not a single-race or "one-size-fitsall" society. Beauty comes in a wide variety of shapes, sizes, and colors, and women across this country (and around the world) are having breast augmentation at an ever-increasing rate. These so-called "types" of women are a real and permanent part of our culture, and as such, we will continue to showcase all of the models who meet our exacting standards.
Gallery is a men's sophisticate magazine, and we attempt to appeal to as wide an audience as possible. If we were to continually whittle away at the look of our magazine by catering to the tastes of every reader who only liked or disliked certain physical or ethnic attributes, we couldn't publish a magazine of any interest. Imagine if Sports Illustrated only featured articles on one kind of sport, or if 20th Century Fox only made one kind of movie. I dare say that would make for an extremely narrow and boring society.
If you don't like a feature in Gallery, our apologies. I assure you that in every issue, we try our best to provide the highest quality and most entertaining product for you that we can. I enjoy hearing your opinions through the mail and via the Internet, so if you have a topic you'd like addressed in a future "Right Up Front" column, please let me know.
