First U.K. male pin-up
Paul de Feu, reclining in a suitably modest position, was photographed nude for a full-colour,
double-page spread
in "Cosmopolitan" (London), April 1972. It was of some interest that Mr. de Feu,
aged 36, was married to, but
separated from, Germaine Greer, the keen champion of Women's Lib. A construction worker
and college
graduate, Mr. de Feu described his posing as "striking a blow for male servitude." He was
quoted in "Time"
(14/2/72) as saying "I'm a guy who likes birds. Normally I'd spend a lot of time, chat, and
money taking a girl
out in the hopes of getting somewhere with her. This way- being a pin-up - I've got to the
clothes-off stage with
thousands of birds straightaway." During the same month "Cosmopolitan" (New
York) printed a centrefold nude
photograph of the American actor Burt Reynolds.
