Girl next door
The girl next door or the All-American girl is an archetype of a cute, kind, unassuming, and honest girl or woman who lives next door, often in a romantic story. Hugh Hefner required ''Playboy'' centerfolds to be portrayed in this specific manner, telling photographers in a 1956 memo that the "model must be in a natural setting engaged in some activity 'like reading, writing, mixing a drink'...()... should have a 'healthy, intelligent, American look—a young lady that looks like she might be a very efficient secretary or an undergrad at Vassar.'"
The male equivalent is the "boy next door". During World War II, American propaganda often invoked her as the symbol of all things American.〔Meghan K. Winchell, ''Good Girls, Good Food, Good Fun''. p. 73. ISBN 978-0-8078-3237-0.〕 Songs on the armed forces request radio programs were not of Rosie the Riveter but of the girls who were waiting for soldiers.〔John Costello. ''Virtue Under Fire''. p. 125 ISBN 0-316-73968-5.〕 Many such songs were also popular at the home front.〔William L. O'Neill. ''A Democracy At War: America's Fight At Home and Abroad in World War II. p. 262. ISBN 0-02-923678-9.〕 Themes of love, loneliness, and separation were given more poignancy by the war.〔Robert Heide and John Gilman. ''Home Front America: Popular Culture of the World War II Era''. p. 116. ISBN 0-8118-0927-7. .〕
