Hi PodMaster, Thanks for the swift kick in the butt. :-) I have added strict, warning and diagnostics. I have cleaned up the really stupid mistakes that I had. I can now see it using the cookies unlike before. I was able to successfully fill in the form and retrieve the content i.e my submit_form() method returns a sucess. The content is as follows. 
<META HTTP-EQUIV="Refresh" CONTENT="0;URL=https://secure2.playboy.com/
+security/cookieGenerator.do">

<html>
<body bgcolor="#000000" >
</body>
</html>

[download]

This is the content I get when I use a regular browser also. So I think the code works until this point. In the regular browser it then goes to the next page which is also a https page. The link for the page is in the variable $member_gateway. I tried downloading that next but when I try that I get the same login page again.
I did read your README. I use linux. so I wont be able to use your repository.
Thank you for your original comments
Here is my new code 
#!/usr/bin/perl

use HTTP::Cookies;
use WWW::Mechanize;
use strict;
use warnings;
use diagnostics;
use LWP::Debug qw(+);  #Shows the transaction taking place

my $start_page = 'https://secure2.playboy.com/security/loginStart.do?s
+c_target=cyber.playboy.com';
my $mech = WWW::Mechanize->new( agent=>"Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i68
+6; en-US; rv:1.7) Gecko/20040918 Firefox/0.9.3 " );

my $cookie_jar = HTTP::Cookies->new(file => './lwp_cookies.dat', autos
+ave => 1,);  #Creating a cookie jar

$mech->cookie_jar($cookie_jar); #Attaching cookie jar to the user agen
+t i.e $mech
$mech->get( $start_page );

if ($mech->success()==1) {
        print "Success \n";
        }

$mech->submit_form(
        form_name => 'loginForm',
        fields    => {
                username  => 'xxxx',
                password  => 'xxxx',
                savedPWAction => 'on',
        }
);

if ($mech->success()==1) {
        print "Success \n";
        }
print $mech->content();

my $member_gateway='https://secure2.playboy.com/gateway/gateway.do ';
$mech->get($member_gateway);

print $mech->content();
