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.

When I discovered Playboy in Braille years ago, it was in a box in an abandoned building. I found myself in a state of disbelief. The kind you feel when you're being chased by a leprechaun with a crossbow. It's normal to not want Playboy in Braille to exist. Because it's weird. It raises too many questions. Questions like: Why is the government printing Playboy in Braille? And: How do you explain a naked woman to a pubescent, visually impaired teen? (banterist)
