The folks at Reddit have uncovered what appears to be WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange's OKCupid dating profile. The Über-private Assange would never be an online dater, you say! But the last time this user accessed the profile was way back in 2006, when Julian Assange wasn't the cable-dumping antihero he is today. Back then, he was just a danger-loving lonely boy. So, if this profile is the Real Him — and the pictures of him and the fake name "HarryHarrison" seem to suggest that it is — then what do we learn about the enigma of Julian Assange by examining the face he wanted to show the world? Or, at least, the face he showed the world he hoped to sleep with?

He is 87 percent slutty. Okay, we could have guessed that too. People never change. Anyway, he confirms it in his "self-summary": "Want a regular, down to earth guy? Keep moving. I am not the droid you're looking for. Passionate and often pig headed activist intellectual seeks siren for love affair." And in the "Test" section, he came back "87% dominating, 87% slut." But also "Strong Democrat." On the "I'm Really Good At" section, he wrote "A gentleman never tells." So he's also kind of cheesy and gross......
