Actually the comments indicate that the "controversy" seems to be imagined by many people. By the way, I don't know anything about Joost, so he may not be innocent. But the article is an excellent example of an inability to distinguish between consensual but obnoxious stuff and clearly non-consensual behavior.

Also read the comment by Jenny Halasz, it seems very telling: "I had the audacity to start a thread on twitter where I suggested that perhaps we should ask the women involved if they were being harassed before we leveled accusations at the supposed harasser.

For my trouble, I got called a woman hater, an enabler, and plenty of other terrible things (now conveniently deleted by the people who said those awful things: Cohen, Rayner, a handle by the name of callis1987, and Forden)"
