LOS ANGELES, Nov 29 — Adult film star Stoya made a shocking revelation on Twitter, alleging her ex James Deen (a high-profile adult film actor) raped her.

While she did receive support from many of her followers, there was also a backlash with some insinuating that perhaps she wasn't being truthful.

Her supporters responded by Tweeting the hashtag #standwithStoya to show their support for her.

Stoya is well-known for being candid about her personal life and the realities of being an actor in porn. She has written about her refusal to augment her breasts with surgery and learning to reject the normal adult film practice of shaving the nether region.

Besides adult films, Stoya has also written for various publications including The Verge (where she writes a sex column) and Vice.
