Miss June Juliette Fretté explains why posing is liberating

"When asked why I've posed for Playboy in the past, I used the excuse that I was working on my women's-studies honors thesis at UCLA. It was a project called "Posing for Playboy From a Feminist Perspective: How Media Images Impact Women's Empowerment." I planned to expand the thesis into a book upon graduation. Although some of my friends and family were unhappy I had posed, it wasn't for or because of them that I clung to this excuse. It was more out of a fear of facing up to my decision. I even went through a period after graduation when I tried to escape the big-breasted blonde stereotype by dying my hair. But eventually I realized I was happier as a light, bright blonde who happens to be big-breasted- and that I wanted to work with Playboy again".
