Lads. The Indo thinks my outfit (a top, not a dress ACTUALLY) was too revealing and inappropriate for day wear #AskingForIt pic.twitter.com/QICSJlRiKY

Oh that I clearly wore it to blind/distract @TVsCarlKinsella and @Tony_Cuddihy. Because boys will be boys, I guess — Louise O' Neill (@oneilllo) November 5, 2016
Tony Cuddihy and Carl Kinsella of JOE.ie were "the two young male journalists" mentioned within said piece and Tony voiced his outrage at the inaccuracies and sheer ridiculousness of the whole situation.I wore the same outfit to an all-female panel event in Birmingham. But sure look it.... pic.twitter.com/Eu9qZi4jnP

Yes, every man becomes a slavering mess in the presence of a woman wearing whatever the hell she wants. Baffling stupidity from the Indo. https://t.co/QJWKuvQNLA — Tony Cuddihy (@Tony_Cuddihy) November 5, 2016
Needless to say, people are raging and have been tweeting to let Louise know they think the whole thing is ridiculous.This is so contrary to everything I discussed with @oneilllo and @TVsCarlKinsella that it surely has to be satire? Please say it's satire. https://t.co/Gj1FaHF4il

I think the Indo reviewer may just have completely and totally missed the point of the #askingforit programme. — old diesel (@olddiesel) November 5, 2016
The point of Asking For It has been entirely missed by some people.Peeps bashing @oneilllo 4 'revealing clothing' in #AskingForIt - u r literally proving the point by seeing this as a bigger issue than rape pic.twitter.com/YCQ5zglYTV

Moral of the story, we as women are going to wear whatever the hell we want because fashion is a means of expressing yourself. NOT because you're luring on men or putting yourself out there or even thinking of anything else but what you want to wear. GET YOUR SHOULDERS OUT.
