He is a comedian. It's difficult to judge his show because I think he is danish or something, so no idea if he is really anti-women or in fact making parodies of that stance.
I don't think the cause of women would be served if pointing to the problem would not be allowed anymore. In fact that has traditionally been the role of comedians, to say the things others dare not or may not say.
Again, I can not really judge his performance, as I don't know it, so I certainly don't want to defend him. Just adding a word of caution to not judge rashly.
He's not a comedian. He's an author, motivational speaker and media pundit with a long history of making misogynistic statements, who also does the occasional stand up show at events.

That wasn't obvious from the article, thanks for clarifying. I guess he (deservedly) isn't well known outside of Denmark...
Is the "Lighten Up" posting becoming some sort of a meme now? This is the 3rd time it is posted in this discussion...
