My experience with it was in two parts; as my first sense of sexuality in my tweens in the early 80's, and then a period in the mid-90's where I recall reading some notably in-depth (and career defining) interviews - the Salman Rushdie one comes to mind. I was working at the local B&N at that point so I could grab the free non-returns issues at the end of the month, at which point I had definitely moved on from the pictorials - though I still looked.
That dichotomy - the 'women as objects' adolescent attitude to sex and roving and more than occasionally thoughtful and deep content - pretty much sums up the magazine and the man who ran it.
