Portnoy's behavior would have violated the Playboy Foolosophy: never
make love to your hand when you can pay for a comatose girl with a
pulse. On the other hand, I don't suppose Philip Rahv gave a damn
(assuming he still was editor in '67). The Australian National
University website announcing a 9/2005 seminar on Rahv and the PR
described him as a "sexual entrepreneur," which I suppose could mean any
number of things about which I don't wish to speculate. If indeed he
still edited PR back when Roth submitted, like met have met like and the
story had a home.
