In case you thought "dude is the jerkoff hand gesture incarnate" wasn't a good enough reason to not buy the dude's games, get a load of this:

The idea that ambiguity in communication is what causes men to rape is another one of those fictions we indulge in as a society to obfuscate how sexual assault is more or less a game to men, how groups of men encourage and enable each other and how it forms the basis of their social standing.

last i checked unwanted invasive questions about sexual topics is textbook sexual harassment and in the UK is explicitly unlawful under the equality act 2010 but she's rich so it's not illegal when she does it JKR is openly admitting to having committed a sex crime in this post
What is sexual harassment?
Sexual harassment occurs when a person engages in unwanted conduct of a  
sexual nature that has the purpose or effect of:
violating 
someone’s 
dignity 
or
creating an intimidating, hostile, 
degrading, humiliating or 
offensive environment for them.
Sexual harassment is unlawful under the Equality Act 2010. 
Unwanted conduct of a sexual nature
• Includes a wide range of behaviour, such as: - sexual comments or jokes - displaying sexually graphic pictures, posters or photos - suggestive looks, staring or leering - propositions and sexual advances - making promises in return for sexual favours - sexual gestures - intrusive questions about a person’s private or sex life, and discussing your own sex life - sexual posts or contact on social media - spreading sexual rumours about a person  - sending sexually explicit emails or text messages - unwelcome touching, hugging, massaging or kissing - criminal behaviour, including sexual assault, stalking, indecent exposure and  
offensive communications.
• An individual can experience unwanted conduct from someone of the same or different sex. 
• The recipient of the behaviour decides whether or not it is unwanted. 
• Unwanted conduct can be one-off. It does not need to be repeated to constitute sexual    
harassment. 
• Unwanted conduct does not need to be directed at a person. It can be witnessed or overheard.
• It does not matter whether the conduct is acceptable to others or is common in the person’s   
work environment
