[GRAPHIC] Female Photographer Accuses “Master Of None” Actor Aziz Ansari With Harassment

On Saturday, reports surfaced detailing allegations of harassment of an unnamed photographer who had gone out on a date with Master of None actor, Aziz Ansari.

The photographer says, what started out as a pleasant dinner out on the town, turned into an unwanted groping session that ended with tears and a ride home in an Uber.

According to the article, published in Babe, by Katie Way, Ansari asked the female photographer to dinner; they went; he asked her back to his apartment; she acquiesced. They got undressed, Ansari said he would grab a condom, and the woman objected, saying, “Whoa, let’s relax for a sec, let’s chill.” Here’s the story:

She says he then resumed kissing her, briefly performed oral sex on her, and asked her to do the same thing to him. She did, but not for long. “It was really quick. Everything was pretty much touched and done within ten minutes of hooking up, except for actual sex.”

She accused Ansari of pulling her hand toward his genitals multiple times, but she never got up to leave, and when she said no, he stopped. “Throughout the course of her short time in the apartment, she says she used verbal and non-verbal cues to indicate how uncomfortable and distressed she was,” Way reports. The woman states, “I know I was physically giving off cues that I wasn’t interested. I don’t think that was noticed at all, or if it was, it was ignored.”

But those cues were at best ambiguous: she told Ansari she didn’t want to have sex, because she didn’t “want to feel forced.” He said okay. Then they sat on the couch, and he asked her for oral sex:

Ansari instructed her to turn around. “He sat back and pointed to his penis and motioned for me to go down on him. And I did. I think I just felt really pressured. It was literally the most unexpected thing I thought would happen at that moment because I told him I was uncomfortable.”

Finally, after some more of this back and forth, the woman said she wanted to leave, Ansari called her an Uber, and she went home. She texted a friend that she “had to say no a lot. He wanted sex.” Later, she texted Ansari, “Last night might’ve been fun for you, but it wasn’t for me. You ignored clear non-verbal cues; you kept going with advances. I want to make sure you’re aware so maybe the next girl doesn’t have to cry on the ride home.” Ansari replied, “I’m so said to hear this. Clearly, I misread things in the moment and I’m truly sorry.” source

Ansari has also had starring roles in TVs, Parks and Recreation and the popular animated series, Bob’s Burgers.
