He is still attractive in an octogenerian kind of way but I really question what he expects of these autumn/spring liasons. What say you?
Playboy's Hugh Hefner Gets Engaged to a Playmate ... AgainDec 26, 2010 – Playboy magazine founder Hugh Hefner says he's gotten engaged again.
Hefner said in a Twitter message early Sunday that he'd given a ring to girlfriend and Playmate Crystal Harris, saying she burst into tears.

Hugh Hefner and Playmate Crystal Harris arrive, seen here in April, are engaged."This is the happiest Christmas weekend in memory," he wrote.
To clear up confusion over whether the ring was simply a Christmas gift, Hefner later tweeted: "Yes, the ring I gave Crystal is an engagement ring. I didn't mean to make a mystery out of it. A very merry Christmas to all."
This would be the third marriage for the 84-year-old, star of E! reality series "The Girls Next Door," which chronicles Hefner's life at the Playboy Mansion. He divorced Playmate Kimberly Conrad last year.
Harris is 23, according to her online biography by E!

What say i? I say . . . booooorrrrrrrring . . .
@Setanta,
yeh, sex is sorta boring.
@Sglass,
I think she might be in it for money.
@Rockhead,
Oh, Rocky, you are being cynical!
@Sglass,
The boy's in his eighties . . . i don't see that any interesting sex enters into it at all . . . but then, i never was voyeuristic.
As I was just saying to Ed,
You have to hand it to Hef, he's looking sprightly.
But I'd say she's just a glorified nurse
I'm in my forties & she'd probably kill me
But it would be a nice way to go
with a smile or her on your face
To each their own; Hef seems to still have the stamina, and I sort'a admire that!
@cicerone imposter,
Stamina for what..publicity? I see a young starlet-actress/lingerie model who needs a career (bank acct) boost and an old tycoon who wants to save Playboy corporation by creating publicity with an engagement which may or may not result in a wedding.
@Rockhead,
Re Playboy Enterprises ... furthermore: "The Age reported in October 2008 that, for the first-time ever, Hugh Hefner is selling tickets to his celebrity-filled parties to offset his cash-flow problems due to setbacks Playboy Enterprises has suffered, including decreasing Playboy circulation, decreasing stock value, and ventures that have yet to turn a profit.
Christie Hefner released a memo to employees about her efforts to streamline the company's operations, including eliminating its DVD division and laying off staff (Christie Hefner, Hugh's daughter) resigned sometime in 2008)."
If he's still able to attract a desirable young woman into his bed (no matter how), good for him.
Can't imagine why he feels the need to marry her though.
@Finn dAbuzz,
Something financial as the bedrock for that marriage..
Let's do the math. He's 84, she's 23. Theoretically, he could be her GREAT-GRANDFATHER!!!
When Hef was in his glory days, this gal wasn't even born yet.
