The New Hugh Hefner?

Whether or not you like reality tv, I'm sure you've heard of both Sister Wives and The Girls Next Door. I think the differences between the shows is obvious enough, but have you noticed the similarities?



vs.



First, and foremost: 1 man with 3 girlfriends. Kody may actually have 4 "wives" but you have to consider that he is legally only married to 1, which pretty much makes the other 3 girlfriends.

Second, lots of relations. Neither show really gets into the topic that much, but it happens. It's hard to say who gets more because Hef's girls are WAY  better looking, although plastic, but Kody does have 13 kids to show for it. And he has a schedule which totally means business.

Third, all 6 women need stylists.

       

I realize "The Girls Next Door" is obviously trying to sell sex, but some of Holly's outfits are just terrible. Tubesocks do not go with every outfit. Nor am I a fan of turtlenecks. This applies to both shows, but especially if you're living in LA (cough-Holly-cough). Bridget was also the oldest but why does she dress like a baby? Kendra doesn't dress terribly, but she just doesn't dress. I suppose the Sister Wives do dress their age, but they could use a few lessons in the hair and make-up department. I was expecting vibrant purple eyeshadow on one of Hef's girls, not Kody's!

Fourth, both men like women born in the year 1973. Bridget, Hef's ex, and Christine, Kody's 3rd wife are the same age. In the above photo of the 3 women, Christine is wearing the red get-up. Pretty rowdy if you ask me.

Fifth, Holly, Bridget, Kendra, Meri, Janelle, and Christine are all stripper names. I don't really have any guidelines on what a stripper's name is and isn't but just trust me on this one.

Sixth, they both live in mansions. Obviously, the Playboy mansion is much grander, but fitting 17 people under 1 roof is no easy feat.

Seventh, all women hail from the west coast. Obviously, not the best coast. Buncha weirdos if you ask me.

Last, but not least, both shows capture unconventional family structure and living arrangements. As intriguing as the lifestyle of Hef is, I undoubtedly found it absurd. Until I heard of Sister Wives. At least Hugh has the decency to not bring in loads of children to his exotic lifestyle.
