Blind people enjoy pornography too. That's what you'll learn when you pick up a copy of Playboy in braille. Although, if you don't know how to read braille, you won't know the difference between an ad and a description of something naughty.
The best part is that Playboy in Braille can be found in the Library of Congress. I suppose it's all part of an open access to information sort of thing. This particular copy was a vintage find (November 1995 Volume XLII - No. 11.) listed on eBay until they removed it citing that it needed to be listed in a section for mature audiences.
What Makes This Trend Stand Out
- Braille Erotica
- Developing an inclusive and accessible form of erotic content for those who are visually impaired through a braille-based editorial strategy.
- Braille Media
- Creating a braille publishing industry to enable non-visual access to various forms of media, including magazines, newspapers, and books.
- Inclusive Adult Content
- Expanding the diversity of adult content and its accessibility to marginalized audiences whose sexual interests and desires are frequently neglected or underrepresented.
Sectors Adopting This
- Publishing
- Integrating the technology to produce braille publications into the traditional publishing industry to increase accessibility for visually impaired readers.
- Sexual Wellness
- Developing and marketing sexual products geared towards the visually impaired or underrepresented communities to foster inclusivity and reduce marginalization.
- Assistive Technology
- Creating new assistive technology designed to facilitate the consumption of visually-oriented media by the visually impaired, such as braille digital readers or audio description capabilities on visual content.
