Blind Item #6
This HBO actor from a pretty hit show not named GOT there is probably B list. B+ list if you watch the show. He says he was recently date raped by a guy he picked up at a bar.

too many possibilities for me to be comfortable guessing about a rape victim.
ReplyDeleteso he's just casually going around saying this? enty you post some bullshit.
ReplyDeleteSo much this. Rape victims are not gossip fodder, Enty
ReplyDeleteI'm glad that more men are speaking out about being victims of rape. It gives courage to other victims and hopefully causes these men to seek help.
ReplyDeletea lot of the stuff he posts here isn't, and it's all fiction.
ReplyDeleteI'm very pleased to see the unanimous sentiment here and no guesses. Just because he told someone (if this blind is even real) doesn't mean that he wanted it to be known more broadly.
ReplyDeleteWow. That's horrible. I won't dignify this nonsense with a guess either because this is sort of an inappropriate topic for a blind. This is a traumatic experience that shouldn't be minimized as gossip fodder.
ReplyDeleteThere's plenty of guessing and naming when rape blinds are made about women but when it's a man it's ooooh don't speak about it!
ReplyDeleteI wish the post hadn't said "date" rape as though it is minimizing the rape. It's just as accurate to say "was raped by a man he met at a bar" without the "date" in front of it. Rape is rape is rape.
ReplyDeleteIsn't date rape supposed to have a specific meaning? Aka that he was drugged? I don't necessarily think it minimizes rape. It just adds more to the story of how it happened.
ReplyDeleteNo, nothing with being drugged. It's a type of acquaintance rape where there's some sort of romantic or potentially sexual relationship between the two people. So if you went to dinner with someone who asked you out, and on the way home they raped you, that's date rape.
ReplyDeleteThere's different meanings to the term. And yes, one of them refers to rape where drugs are involved. Haven't you ever heard of date rape drugs?
