[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Uh what was with Hannah full frontal in the more recent ep? None of these guys would go for her - she's repulsive. And before someone says it is her weight - it's not. It's her general slovenliness.[/quote]

Agree.  When she holed up with that doctor a couple of seasons ago it was over the top ridiculous.

Lena Dunham has come out as saying that she is "done with Photoshopping" because it is unrealistic.  Agreed, but so are the men she chooses to pair with Hannah in Girls.  It's Photoshopping via character choice; unrealistically flattering.[/quote]

Totally agree.  The new guy is normal and cute!  That would just not happen in real life.[/quote]

I think the point is that you totally underestimate character when it comes to men's choices in women.[/quote]

Uh, have you seen the show? Her personality on it is terrible. And... In their 20s? When the woman looks like Lena Dunham? And repeatedly lands hot guy after hot guy?[/quote]

I usually feel bad criticizing women for their looks/body type, but Lena/Hannah is just outrageously bad.  I've seen her look pretty IRL, but she makes herself look as awful as possible on the show.  I was cringing during the last episode, as she was nude in nearly every scene.  She clearly loves exposing herself, but it's just a horrible look.  And agree about the guys she pairs herself with.

Someone mentioned something similar awhile back about Mindy Kaling on "The Mindy Project," and how an oversized woman like that would never land all these hot guys.  But the difference to me is that Mindy's character actually made the effort to look nice - I found both her looks and her personality to be really attractive.  Hannah seems to go out of her way to look and be horrendously unappealing.  [/quote]

Exactly. Mindy and Lena are probably close to the same size. Mindy is lovely and Lena is disgusting. It isnt anti-women to say that a woman who exposes herself outrageously and blatantly tries look as unattractive as possible is being hypocritical and odd when she pairs her character with guys who are  objectively infinitely more attractive than she is. And all of you "woman hear me roar" people who say it's about what's inside, her character is a pretty terrible person.[/quote]
