Six Gardai sprang to action on Saturday at Knockanstockan to apprehend me, a woman, standing in a field with my breasts uncovered. My supposed indecency was a necessary stand that I was making in peaceful protest of one of the many glaring double standards that are imposed upon women. I am referring, of course, to the Free the Nipple Movement which argues that women and men should be granted the same freedom, and protection, under the law.
The movement aims to advance gender equality and to oppose sexual objectification. I strode away, indignant and frustrated and incredibly lonely. I felt like an outlander, and a fool. I had no one to help me, no one to stand with me. I was distraught. Good fortune, and the spirit of Knockanstockan, soon changed everything. I am accused of causing offense, but, guess what? I'm offended. I'm more than offended, I'm furious. And I have the right to protest.
