Perhaps there were more; the article doesn't say, at least as far as I could tell with multiple readings. And none of the four examples were examples of "freaking out."

I found it worth reading simply because it's more evidence of the very unserious rape crisis hysteria that some leftist feminists have whipped up in the media.
It's not evidence of anything except what four people tweeted. It's a form of yellow journalism.

And I'm sorry, but I have a hard time taking arguments that are constantly punctuated with charges of "hysteria" by the "leftist feminists" seriously. If an argument has merit, it can be made—and can be made much more effectively—without constant resort to that kind of polemic.
