A woman has hit back at the sleazes who commented on her 'sexy' LinkedIn photo.
Last week, 29-year-old Charlotte Miskell won the Best B2C E-Commerce website award and celebrated by uploading a picture of herself holding it to the popular networking site.

Men then began commenting on Miskell's appearance, with one calling her 'tasty', like she was a Fruit Winder.
She told MailOnline: "A few women have commented, but it's primarily men saying the image is 'full of sex' and 'shameful'.
"Apparently it's my neckline that's the issue.
"I was shocked and embarrassed that people I work with would have seen [the comments].

"At one point I thought, shall I take it down? But it's just an evening dress and I wanted everyone to see how well the company is doing."
The Mancunian businesswoman and managing director at Contour Cosmetics Ltd, Niko Pr Ltd and Sweetheart Marketing, was even leered at by much older, married men.
"Looks like the company has some great assets.." one creep joked.

Criticising the comments, Miskell wrote: "What a very sad state of affairs. I didn't realise we had gone back 100 years.
"I will wear whatever I wish. Whether you like the dress or not is not my concern. I'm hardly going to take fashion tips off middle aged balding men."
LinkedIn serves to help professionals build up contacts online. It does not serve as a place for dirty old men to leer.
