Julian Assange Has an OKCupid Account
If I were a political activist whose exploits were so alarming that some actually placed him on a level with Osama Bin Ladin, and combined with his sexual exploits got him imprisoned without chance of bail, I think I might go ahead and delete and/or edit my social networking profiles. Especially if said profiles had strange and cheesy if not psychologically revealing blurbs (“directing a consuming, dangerous human rights project which is, as you might expect, male dominated,“) or hinted at his sexual deviance (boasting “Asian teengirl stalkers”). Oh, also, I’d probably not go by the super porn-y pseudonym “Harry Harrison.” Ew. Porn-y.
But I suppose scrubbing up his dating profile wasn’t the first thing on the activist’s mind, because some wiley investigators over at Gawker found the profile and are spreading its contents around the net. Let’s be honest, allegations of rape and possible treason aside, this profile wouldn’t really stick out on OKCupid. EVERYONE on OKCupid is weird and nerdy and EVERYONE has a permanent tab open for Thesaurus.com, so Assange’s profile would under any other circumstances be ignored by 90% of women; MOVE ALONG, NOTHING TO SEE HERE. Unfortunately, that’s not the case.
Just another reason to keep your dating profile neat and tidy. You never know when you might get involved in a worldwide leak of government cables and sent to prison and have people start going through your life with a fine toothed comb. YOU NEVER KNOW.
