because he’s an asshole he pretty likely hit her? that’s hilarious. thanks for reminding me why Im a criminal defense attorney.

how is he an abuser??? everyone on here has already presumed his guilt. i am genuinely confused. if she hit him first, why is he painted as the abuser, even if he was just trying to defend himself? or are all white women dainty flowers who pose no real threats to men, especially black (read: violent, strong) men? WTF…

I guess she thought since he only hated black women that she would be safe. I remember when gawker published that trash essay and all the white women who were first in line to defend him and assert their perceived superiority over black women. #teamnoone tbh. She sounds like one of those white women who LOVE to get…

Is it really telling, though? What it tells me if that she is really playing up the well-meaning white woman as victim role (whether intentional or not) and he is already cast as the angry black male for passionately defending himself against a charge that could fuck up his entire professional career. we don’t even…

And this is why people that fetishize their partners are bad news. I remember his article on dating white women at Gawker being SAVAGED by commenters, particularly black women. Guess they were on to something.

“it very well might be the biggest technology death since the birth of the internet.”

She explained why she spoke up now. I believe her reasoning.

Perjury is a crime related to lying under oath in a court of law. Lying on Twitter is just lying.

Given that multiple allegations are the typical pattern for a celebrity rapist (see Bill Cosby), I think this is pretty damning. It’s not “beyond a reasonable doubt”, but that doesn’t matter since James Deen is not on trial in a court of law for rape - in fact, at this point, he’s not even facing a civil suit.

The chart was derived from cases that were prosecuted even though it is an estimation at bet. But your anger concerns me because I get the feeling you are suddenly going to start hulking out into an insufferable MRA.

Also: Woody Allen, Roman Polansky...etc, pp.

What would be corroborating evidence? It often doesn’t exist in rape cases. When it comes to people who work in porn I can see why she wouldn’t have gone to the police, since that appears to be the case. Law enforcement does not have a good track record in rape cases in general. He was her boyfriend when the rape is…

Were a lawyer truly convinced that he could plead innocence and not perjure himself, those tweets would read: I did not rape Stoya.

I think you are exactly where you should be emotionally. The thing that should weight Stoya’s accusation over Deen’s denial is the fact that statistically false rape allegations are very small. Yet, they do happen so you can’t absolutely know for sure. The only thing that I can recommend as another sentient human…

I was truly open to hearing that which he had to say. My inclination was belief in Stoya but, in the case that the accusations were not true, I wanted to have an open mind.

I think it’s just hard for some people to come to grips with, the idea that someone they’ve known and cared about could do something so horrible.

I hate when men describe themselves as feminists. You can say you support feminism. But don’t say you’re an actual feminist. More often than not it’s bullshit. Like in this douche’s case. I can’t get over the fact that his porn was described as “feminist porn for the thinking woman.” L O L. I admit I did like a couple…

Can people stop calling (white) men feminist because they said some nice things about women now? Or are y’all looking for the next great white guy to prop up as a savior to women?

That daughter’s had a rough six months, what with mom no doubt pulling more than a few all-nighters at the dining room table, awash in legal briefs and obscure writs, trying to nail those My Little Pony fuckers to the wall. Now this Kool Aid comment...

Did the other moron just say, “I hope my wife’s not watching, this may be at our house tomorrow?” Seriously?
