The companion of Giorgia Meloni, the Italian prime minister, has denied sufferer blaming after seeming to recommend ladies might keep away from being raped by not getting drunk.
TV presenter Andrea Giambruno, who hosts the Diario del giorno, or Daily Diary, on the Rete 4 business station, was commenting on the gang rape of a younger lady within the Sicilian capital, Palermo.
Mr Giambruno stated on his present on Monday: "If you go dancing, you have every right to get drunk, there shouldn't be any kind of misunderstanding and any kind of problem.
"But if you avoid getting drunk and losing your senses, you might also avoid running into certain problems and coming across a wolf."
His feedback had been condemned by, amongst others, opposition politician, Cecilia D'Elia, a Democratic Party senator.
She instructed him boys "should be educated to show respect, rather than girls taught to be careful.
"Teach them (males) the worth of consent, fairly than women to be cautious," she stated.
Mr Giambruno, whose TV profession has taken off since Ms Meloni's right-wing get together took energy in Italy in October, denied sufferer blaming and stated his feedback had been taken out of context.
Accusing his critics of making a "surreal" controversy, he instructed Corriere della Sera on Wednesday he "did not say that males are free to rape ladies who're drunk.
"Some politicians are jumping on a false headline and calling for my suspension, but for what reason? For having told young people not to take drugs?"
Ms Meloni, who has a younger daughter with Mr Giambruno, has not commented on the state of affairs.
It just isn't the primary time that Mr Giambruno's feedback have induced a stir.
Last month, he instructed the German Health Minister to "stay in the Black Forest", after Karl Lauterbach questioned whether or not tourism in southern Europe was viable within the midst of the summer time's intense warmth.
