According to Vogue, in the interview with The Sunday Times, Hynde elaborated on her perception of why the Hells Angels took advantage of her, which ignited public outcry as people claimed she was victim-blaming when she said: "If I'm walking around in my underwear and I'm drunk, who else's fault can it be? If I'm walking around and I'm very modestly dressed and I'm keeping to myself and someone attacks me, then I'd say that's his fault. ... You know, if you don't want to entice a rapist, don't wear high heels so you can't run from him. If you're wearing something that says, 'Come and f*** me,' you'd better be good on your feet."
And though many took offense to Hynde's attitude toward what most see as a violent crime, she maintains that her willingness to use drugs and hang out with bad dudes meant she was not an innocent party in her own sexual assault. Hynde told Greene at NPR, "You know, I was having fun, because I was so stoned. I didn't even care. That's what I was talking about, I was talking about the drugs more than anything, and how f***** up we were. And how it impaired our judgment to the point where it just had gotten off the scale."
