Stoya Accused Her Ex James Deen of Rape; Deen Responds
“I just can’t nod and smile when people bring him up anymore.”
Porn actress, writer, and director Stoya accused James Deen of rape in a series of tweets Saturday afternoon. The two dated in 2013 and split the following year. It’s not clear exactly when they broke up nor when the alleged rape occurred.
That thing where you log in to the internet for a second and see people idolizing the guy who raped you as a feminist. That thing sucks.
