My father is not that comfortable with children, but he's a terrific father for an adult.
I consider myself very fortunate to grow up in a time when my family, my friends don't look at me funny because I'm a 29-year-old single woman.
It's mutual respect and love that are important, not a wedding.

I've always believed about brands and media that the mistake sometimes that's made is to think you're just going to take what you've been doing and kind of re-purpose it into the new platform. I don't think that ever works because consumers look for different experiences in different media formats.
It's difficult sometimes to, in effect, let go of how you're used to doing things and give the brand room to be reinvented.
I consider Playboy very wholesome, frankly.
