"As for the charges of Groping, I say yes, I AM A GROPER. And by groper, I mean I get paid to show up to these shows, events, and photo shoots..."

"... and touch the people and they touch me. I'm not the young stud I was, but I still draw a crowd. And we are talking about things that are within reason, in front of police officers and security that are always there as well as the tons of cameras And the general public.... But seriously, if you were going to be around Ron Jeremy, wouldn't you assume that I'd be a little bit touchy feely? Yes. This is what I do for a living. I am not Kevin Spacey, Louis CK, Weinstein or Cosby."

Said Ron Jeremy, quoted in "Porn legend Ron Jeremy banned from AVN Adult Entertainment Expo convention after rape allegations," a Daily News article published today. The quote was part of a much longer written statement appended to a Rolling Stone article that came out last November, "Inside Ron Jeremy Sexual Misconduct Allegations/After years of worrying their stories would be brushed off, women are coming forward with accusations against the famous porn star."

Accusing a porn industry star of having sex seems to jump the shark.

Puh-lease

Oh, Ron.

Laugh out loud funny. When you’re down to using Ron Jeremy to beat your drum you’ve slipped into absurdity. The issue is serious but it’s heralds are fucking jokes.

Owen said...

This is the Reckoning.

tcrosse said...

At least they have evidence on film.

FIDO said...

Of course he is accused of rape. For the Althouses of the world, any unwelcome or even vigorously requested sexual contact is a form of rape.

But in this case...one CAN rape a porn star and Ron is just the kind of creep to do it. I am not going to dismiss these charges out of hand.

That being said, ex post facto changes to the law are supposed to be opposed by the law. There is also a statute of limitations thing.

If he slept with a drunk girl in the 70's or 80's, and now is accused of rape...I have a problem with that. OUR definitions have changed and eviscerating people for them now seems very ex post facto indeed.

If the charges are in the last 10 years, that is different.

I'm conflicted on this, mostly due to the bad faith of the sexual pearl clutchers.

"I posed for a picture with Ron [at a porn meeting of some sort] and he tried to forcefully kiss me on the lips and he grabbed my ass. My husband was furious."

IOW, "I posed for a picture with a prostitute at a prostitute convention and the prostitute TOUCHED ME!"

The jokes continue to write themselves.

Here is a BBC interview with that bint who brought down a 33 year old charity over people 'holding her hand', which she found just as shocking as a man groping her. Odd.

It is vaguely associated with groping so...

Nine and three-quarter inches.

And now I know.

I write a blog about the movie Dirty Dancing. There, in August 2015, I published an article titled "Ron Jeremy's Reminiscences About Borscht-Belt Resorts".

http://dirty-dancing-analysis.blogspot.com/2015/08/ron-jeremys-reminisces-about-borscht.html

My article told about Jeremy's sexual adventures while working at a Catskills resort in the early 1970s. The movie involves workers' sexual adventures at a Catskills resort in the year 1963.

This article in my blog continues to get a lot of pageviews every week, more than two years after I published it.

-----

There is some porn star who goes by the stage name Johnny Castle, which is the name of the Dirty Dancing character played by Patrick Swayze. According to Blogger, quite a few people have come to my blog from doing a Google search for that porn star.

Betty White groped Sanda Bullock, or at least rummaged her:

Maybe [the handed-down dress is] a tad loose in certain areas, but otherwise...

Oh, sorry.

I'm a bit chesty to begin with and I happened to be knocked up when I wore this. Oh, let's see if we can find your boobs. - They're in there somewhere. - Yes. Yes, they are. This is like an Easter egg hunt.

Maybe they shrunk up in the cold Alaskan air.

- There they are.

Last week my blog's 2015 article about Ron Jeremy got 72 pageviews.

hiawatha biscayne said...

That's the GREAT Ron Jeremy to you. Guy's a movie star.

Sebastian said...

This is disappointing. I had thought porn was the only honest industry left.

"The movie involves workers' sexual adventures at a Catskills resort in the year 1963."

A good friend of mine worked at a resort in the Poconos when he was in college in the 50s. The resort advertised "College Boy Waiters."

He said the sex was a fringe benefit and probably why they were not paid more. It was expected.

Mike Sylwester said...

If you have seen Dirty Dancing, then you will enjoy watching the first video in this post.

https://dirty-dancing-analysis.blogspot.com/2017/12/home-made-dirty-dancing-12.html

It was done by some movie-making group in Poland, and it tells the story very cleverly in just six minutes.

Sebastian said...

"Here is a BBC interview with that bint who brought down a 33 year old charity" OMFG. Who knew the Reckoning would turn into the Onioning so soon?

Wince said...

#MeToo and #TimesUp fancy themselves as the Hollywood version of NEXT.

Getting rid of the old bodies that were stinking up the place.

Bilwick said...

Another childhood idol of mine tarnished!

Jeff Gee said...

Laslo, thou shouldst be living at this hour. Or at least still publishing under that name.

bagoh20 said...

Some of us are just driven by our jobs. We love our work and take every opportunity to think about it, push it forward, develop new skills, and yes we often work when other people are sleeping or partying. Ron is just a workaholic.

mockturtle said...

Eeeeeeuuuuuuuwwwww!

Anonymous said...

Wow, I never realized 'BBC' also stands for British Broadcasting Company!

So, Ron has 9.75 inches? Hell, I've got two feet!

Rob said...

Reading the headline quickly, I thought Ron Jeremy had confessed to the ultimate sin in Wisconsin: I AM A GOPHER.

"I'm not the young stud I was, but I still draw a crowd."
Maybe some err..up and coming..talents don't appreciate the "legend".
Wait till he shows up in a wheelchair..

Anonymous said...

Ron was supposed to meet my wife so I could take a picture, but he stiffed her.

Daniel Jackson said...

I guess he thought that when you are a star, they let you grab them by the pussy.

tim in vermont said...

He didn't call, so it was rape.

tim in vermont said...

The husband was probably furious about not following through on the cuckold fantasy.

William said...

I didn't want to read about the gymnastics scandal because they were nice girls and the abuse was disturbing. I don't want to read about this because the characters are too sleazy. Who pays money to have their picture taken with Ron Jeremy? Both scandals give me more information about the human condition than I care to know.......Harvey Weinstein is the Goldilocks of sex scandals. Who among us doesn't want to contemplate the moral lessons to be learned from Harvey and his doomed love affair with the goop girl. Harvey gave Meryl her greatest and most revealing roles. I'm particularly impressed with her line reading of "Harvey is God". That even topped her standing ovation for Roman Polanski.....After Harvey, all sex scandals are stale, flat, and profitless,

walter said...

"Who pays money to have their picture taken with Ron Jeremy? "
I suspect he's referring to being paid by the party organizers to simply be there.
Like Paris Hilton was/is..like the Marc's Big Boy used to be.

Mike Sylwester said...

I read Ron Jeremy's autobiography. He accumulated his extraordinarily large number of sexual partners not only by performing in pornographic movies.

He also was a regular for a long time at Plato's Retreat, a swinger's club in Manhattan.

Darrell said...

Who ever thought that Ron Jeremy ever touched a woman APPROPRIATELY in his life?

Francisco D said...

Who still reads Rolling Stone articles that are not about music?

Darrell said...

Garrison Keillor told me an autographed photo was $10 and I told him to fuck off.

hombre said...

First it's Hollywood's soft core porn queens whingeing about sexual misconduct, now it's real porn queens. What's next, sex surrogates? "Boo boo. He only had permission to touch me here during the session, but he tried to touch me there."

Also, somebody needs to educate Rolling Stone about the difference between sex workers and porn stars, even if the knowledge detracts from future meaty stories. (Pun intended.)

lgv said...

Accused of rape. Admits to "touchy feely". I see a distinction with a difference.

JAORE said...

Nine and three-quarter inches.

Seriously? Yeah, that is bigger than the norm. But I thought he was supposed to be enormous.
