James Deen probably wishes he had tempered his social-media sense of humor a bit right about now.
With accusations of rape and near-rape mounting around the porn actor, ill-advised jokes that Deen made on Twitter have begun to emerge, coming back to haunt him.
On one occasion in Feb. 2012, Deen cracked, “It’s not rape if you yell surprise … then it’s a party.”
The porn actor dropped a similar wisecrack a year earlier, writing, “Things I’ve learned… It’s not rape if you yell surprise and if you put enough bbq sauce on anything it will taste ok.”
On Valentine’s Day 2011, Deen offered a twisted take on the holiday, tweeting, “Do they make candy hearts that say ‘rape me’???”
Feb. 2011 also found Deen tweeting, “I’m going to get off this plane and go rape a stuffed animal until it crys!!!!”
In the past few days, Deen has been hit with accusations from multiple women, including his ex-girlfriend, porn actress Stoya, who posted a number of tweets on Saturday claiming that Deen raped her. Former adult star Tori Lux also claims that the actor sexually assaulted her, while adult actress Ashley Fires claimed Deen “almost raped her.”
Since the accusations came to light, a number of organizations have severed ties with Deen, including Kink.com, Evil Angel, The Frisky — which said it will no longer publish Deen’s sex-advice column WWJDD (What Would James Deen Do) and the Adult Performer Advocacy Committee.
Deen has denied the allegations via Twitter.
It’s not rape if you yell surprise… then it’s a party RT @danadearmond @JamesDeen it’s ok. You’ll be ass raping them in 6 years.
