We are sick and tired of Abbie being slut-shamed, but this morning’s interview with Nova 96.9 hit a new and pretty gross low.
Firstly: Abbie should not have to field questions about her kissing or gyrating a very willing Matt. They were essentially dating for eight weeks, you can’t blame two consenting adults for wanting to express that in a physical way.
But for a grown man to ask questions that make a 23-year-old woman feels she needs to explain why she wanted to passionately kiss the man she is falling for, is wrong.
It’s that simple.
WATCH: Abbie breaks down after she gets dumped by Matt
Let’s all just agree on one thing: Abbie should not have to apologise for expressing her sexuality, especially when Bachelor Matt Agnew seemed more than willing to accept.
The conversation with Fitzy and Wippa started relatively nice this morning when Abbie was asked whether she found it hard to believe Matt chose Chelsie, considering Abbie and Matt had such a strong physical connection.
“You only see 5 percent of our entire date,” Abbie responded.
“So everyone’s kind of focusing on my sexual chemistry with Matt verse the intellectual chemistry, I think we had a mix of both, [but] I think that’s what was kind of chosen to be focused on.”

Here’s when Fitzy is obviously triggered: “When did you think you had it [Matt]? Was it when you were gyrating on his stomach on the beach? Or was it in the pool when you basically had your tongue down his throat.”
Ughh.
“Yeah it was probably the third gyration,” Abbie replied.
We don’t know how Abbie would be feeling at this moment, but we can’t imagine being constantly questioned for expressing your sexuality – especially by an older man with a public profile – would feel good.
Fitzy – not taking the hint – continued to fixate on Abbie’s sexual decisions throughout the show, saying: “After you said the line I am so toey [horny] at the moment and what I could do to you, was there a moment like a few minutes after that where you went ‘what did I just do?'”
We’d like to pause here and say whether you’re on TV or not on TV, you can most definitely express your desire to sleep with the man YOU ARE DATING.
There is straight-up nothing wrong with that, there is something wrong with a grown man making a woman feel like that by expressing her sexual desire for someone, somehow, makes her less respectable, even suggesting that she should be embarrassed.
It doesn’t.

Abbie goes on to explain herself, mainly because Fitzy made her feel like she had to:
“I don’t remember that I said that. We would have been in the water for half an hour at that point and we had been talking and chatting about our feelings and I think, the cameras are like 200 metres away, like so far away and I think I just thought they couldn’t hear me.”
Instead of just moving on, Fitzy persisted: “We don’t usually go down this road. But was there a distraction going on underneath the water.”
Ok, Fitzy has engaged full-on creepo mode here.
“I mean I would rather not comment on that,” a clearly uncomfortable Abbie replies.

Dude, leave it alone and stop being weird.
We think Osher summed it up best with this tweet.

Just for the record gals and boys, NEVER feel ashamed to express your sexuality.
