Helen Mirren Date Rape Claim
By Karen | September 2, 2008
Helen Mirren has come forward and told that she was date raped as a student.
The 63 year old Oscar winner has reported that she was date raped more than once, but never reported the rapes because she was too “naive”.
“I was pretty naive, I went to a convent school until I was 18, and had never spent a night away from home, or gone to parties, or any of that. So I was very innocent when I went to college in London, and I was living on my own. And I found guys were horrible, mean, rude, insulting, and so without feeling.”
“And I was looking for love and for someone who just liked me, made me laugh and was nice to me. And instead I just met all these creeps.”She said of her own experiences: “I was (date-raped), yes. A couple of times. Not with excessive violence, or being hit, but rather being locked in a room and made to have sex against my will. It’s such a tricky area, isn’t it? Especially if there is no violence. I mean, look at Mike Tyson. I don’t think he was a rapist.”
Mike Tyson not a rapist? Give me a break! That man is an animal! Look what he did to Evander Holyfield, and that was just a love nibble. What chace did tiny Miss Black America against that behemoth alone in a Indiana hotel room?
The British born actress who played ‘The Queen’ said that date rape was a “tricky area” and that men and women had to work things out for themselves.
Mirren goes on to piss off anti-rape campaigners saying that “I don’t think she can have that man into court under those circumstances. I guess it is one of the subtle parts of the men/women relationship that has to be negotiated and worked out between them.”
I doubt that anyone will ask Mirren to make a PSA on no means no to date rape any time soon. Crazy bitch is was also a fan of coke. (I am not talking the aspartame heavy beverage.)
“Dope always made me feel miserable and paranoid and unhappy,” she adds. “And I woke up one day and thought, ‘No more of that, thank you.’ ”
If only it was that easy. Apparently, if you are British you can wake up and choose tea and crumpets over blow. Scratch that theory. Amy Winehouse shoots that idea to hell.

Don’t perpetrate about Mike. How a man behaves with another man is in no way an indication of how he’d behave with a woman. If so, a whole lot of athlete- and Marine-wives would really be into rape, huh?
