Say what you will about Jenny McCarthy, but her sixth Playboy cover proves this mom has still got it. Got sex appeal that is. Sense, on the other hand? Well let's just look at what Jenny thinks of her son getting a look-see at his naked mama.
McCarthy says she has no problem with 10-year-old son Evan one day finding her various Playboy poses. Nudity, she says, isn't such a big deal, because you can find stuff that is so much worse on the Internet. True enough, but generally you don't find your own mother, naked, on the Internet.
And more to the point: neither do your friends!
Before she pooh poohs the critics, McCarthy might want to take a trip through your average high school and eavesdrop on the teenage boys ribbing one another. She will soon learn that talking about one another's moms is standard fodder for this set. Making jokes about sex and a guy's mom is sure to get him pretty steamed.
Now, she might want to think some more about the activities of teenage boys when they are not around their friends. When they are alone ... in their bedrooms ... with their tube socks. What are they reading? Ding. Ding. Ding! Playboy! And if Evan's pals are picking up one of Jenny's, it gives a whole new meaning to "what I did to your Mom last night," doesn't it?
Jenny McCarthy may not be worried about her son seeing her naked in a magazine. I get it. I don't want my kid freaked out by the concept of nudity. And I have a funny feeling that Evan won't even want to look ... would you want to see your mom nekkid? Me neither! Or my dad either (OK, going to go shower to wash THAT image out of my brain forever).
But Jenny needs to be realistic about the choices she's made and what they mean for her son. Other people are looking at her naked, and those other people are going to come into contact with her kid. Pretending that he should be cool with it isn't being a good, supportive mom.

What -- if anything -- can Jenny McCarthy do to protect Evan from the inevitable fallout over his mom's naked body being open for other people to ogle?

But you don't really believe in that, because you obviously feel free thought is only reserved for people who think exactly as you do.
Meh, I don't see the big deal. Seriosly, don't we have more important things to worry about than whether Jenny MaCarthy's son is going to need therapy to deal with his mom's nudity. I mean, come on people. Kids are being abused, neglected and here we sit, convinced that some poor kid is going to be damaged because his mom's been on the cover of Playboy. Considering she has been posing for this magazine since before her kid was born, he probably see it as a way of life, much like a policeman's kid has to deal with the possibilty that mom or dad might not come home from their shift. That's right, I'm saying the kid probably just sees this as his mom's JOB. So what!?
If everyone didn't get so damned uptight about a naked body this wouldn't even be an issue!!! Stop teaching our kids that nudity is such an awful thing and it won't be such a big deal to them when they actually see a naked woman or man. I'm not saying walk around naked all the time by any means. But seriously every woman has boobs and a vagina and every man has a penis and if we didn't act like they didn't exist than I imagine kids/teens wouldn't be so curious about them later when hormones start raging.
Seriously, the prudery of many Americans today is starting to make the Victorian period look libertine and even giving strict Muslim nations a run for their money in uptightness.
Maybe you guys are right. I'm not sure what her son understands or how functioning he is. He might not even ever know. She's says his autism was "cured" but there is no cure so who knows? All I know is ALL kids get embarrassed by their parents only most of us aren't in Playboy 6 times. Then again, once he's older, he'll know what his mom is.
And you're also right. I don't have to buy the magazine.
Yes, that's exactly what I meant!!!! Bwahahahahaha!
