Lena Dunham

Anonymous
Girls basically seems like a Sex & The City ripoff, but post-college. I've seen Girls, but just don't get the allure, or what's original about the show.

You're all missing the point. She's not about being pretty, she's about being a bad-ass. And she's a total bad-ass. Do you think she cares what you think about her? She doesn't give a fuck, and that's why she's so awesome. She's the rare woman who is about ideas and her art and not making herself a fantasy for losers on the internet.

Go back to Selena Gomez or Miley Cyrus or whoever who you think is a hottie.....

Girls is the wrong title. It's really White Girls.

No, she doesn't 'care what anyone thinks about her', because her father is a TV exec. That's how she got to do the show and that's how she got the part. In fact, most of lead females on the show have industry connections. Zosia Mamet, anyone? She really is the ugly one, while Lena Dunham is plain average.

She's a product of these parents:

"Her father, Carroll Dunham, is a painter of "overtly sexualized pop art", and her mother, Laurie Simmons, is a photographer and designer who creates artistic domestic scenes with dolls."


She was destined to be .... different

Lena Dunham = the millenial's woody Allen. Woody Allen is certainly no looker, and yet he somehow managed to cast himself opposite some beautiful women without being subjected to opprobrium for his looks. Hmmm wonder why ....

That is too bad for the millennials. She is not nearly as talented as Woody Allen.

Look how he holds her. Do you think she gives a shit what anyone thinks? Look at her man? Look how he holds her? Shit, I should be so lucky.

Also, she's not a supermodel or a beauty queen. Her job isn't to be stunning, fantasy fodder. She's a writer and actor and has done an amazing job with that.



I have no comment on her looks. But I think she's a horrible writer. I also think her acting is pretty bad. I think that she actually exploits the controversy over her body to her advantage (i.e. the only reason her name is well known is because she does a lot of nude scenes with an imperfect body). Aside from that, her show was pretty stupid.

And frankly, it wouldn't have had enough viewers to continue to a second season if it weren't for the constant debate over her nudity. And any time a show needs shock value or controversy to survive, it's because it doesn't have much going for it otherwise.

Seriously, no one is demanding you jerk off to this lady- stop making your hatred of women so obvious. There is so much hate of her because she doesn't care what you think... it is so old already... move on and pick another young girl to abuse


If it makes you feel better, there are a good number of super models I don't find attractive. And there are also a few unconventional people I find attractive. I just don't find her attractive.


That is fine, it is just that there is so much criticism of how this women looks- it is far too common a practice to tear women down based on how they look even when that's is not what she is trying to accomplish. Even women in politics get put to a higher standard of how they "look". Like we can't accomplish anything unless we look pretty while doing it...and the fact that this young actress tries to battle that by putting herself out there in some unflattering ways- really challenges people and brings out the worst in some.


In this case, Lena Dunham is the want who started the controversy about how she looks. Her show has a lot of gratuitous nudity. And she puts it in there BECAUSE she wants to stir the pot and force people to comment on her body.

She doesn't "put herself out there in unflattering ways" because it's important to the story line of the show. She does it in ORDER to put herself out there in an unflattering way and start a controversy about it. She has just about admitted this in interviews.

Any time an actress decides to do lots of nudity to make a statement about nudity, then she is the one inviting the scrutiny over her body.

But she does care. she TALKS about it ALL the time. And some of the comments she makes are actually insulting to other women (of all sizes).

Sorry PP fat does not equal unattractive. What we are saying is regular size, thin or fat Lena ain't cute. Pierces wife is pretty.
