“Do we all have uteruses?” I asked my mother when I was seven.
“Yes,” she told me. “We’re born with them, and with all our eggs, but they start out very small. And they aren’t ready to make babies until we’re older.” I look at my sister, now a slim, tough one-year-old, and at her tiny belly. I imagined her eggs inside her, like the sack of spider eggs in Charlotte’s Webb, and her uterus, the size of a thimble.
“Does her vagina look like mine?”
“I guess so,” my mother said. “Just smaller.”
One day, as I sat in our driveway in Long Island playing with blocks and buckets, my curiosity got the best of me. Grace was sitting up, babbling and smiling, and I leaned down between her legs and carefully spread open her vagina. She didn’t resist and when I saw what was inside I shrieked.
My mother came running. “Mama, Mama! Grace has something in there!”
My mother didn’t bother asking why I had opened Grace’s vagina. This was within the spectrum of things I did. She just on her knees and looked for herself. It quickly became apparent that Grace had stuffed six or seven pebbles in there. My mother removed them patiently while Grace cackled, thrilled that her prank had been a success.

I think I'm gonna lay this one at the feet of the mom. Your kid is diddling your other kid's vagina and you don't see this as a problem, like a therapy/counselling problem immediately?

If only there was a way to throw in an uncircumsized dick and tipping waitresses, this story would become the Smash Bros of GAF fuckery.OT would be a fucking graveyard.
Lena Dunham has always seem to be this extremely obnoxious person who tried to hide it under the guise of "oh I'm a quirky hipster girl". I'm sure'll just shield this under something about feminism, but I di hope this at least shuts her up for awhile.

getting real tired of dipfucks that use liberal language and ideologies to mask how fuckin garbage they are at existing
Weren't her parents like high up elites in the NYC-based art world?Yeah, thats why she was in Japan.
Dunham was raised in Brooklyn and spent her summers in a house in Salisbury, Connecticut, though her parents later purchased a weekend family home in Cornwall, Connecticut.[9]#thestruggle
Dunham attended Saint Ann's School in Brooklyn, where she met Tiny Furniture actress and Girls co-star Jemima Kirke.[10][11] She graduated in 2008 from Oberlin College, where she studied creative writing.[12]
Dunham worked part-time at the West Village boutique Geminola during her college years.[13]
Dunham was diagnosed with obsessive compulsive disorder as a child, and continues to take a low dose of an antidepressant to relieve her anxiety.
Truth Revolt, which is run by the conservative pundit Ben Shapiro and the David Horowitz Freedom Center, initially claimed the incident occurred when Dunham was seventeen, but later added a correction.
I'm 21 years old, a columnist, an author, a graduate of UCLA, a Harvard law student -- and a virgin. And I'm proud of it.
As I explain in my new book, "Porn Generation: How Social Liberalism Is Corrupting Our Future," in today's America, being a proud virgin is no easy task. Those with values are under attack in a culture that treasures "tolerance" above morality. It's no wonder that because of my outspoken advocacy of traditional morality in general and of virginity in particular, I've become a favorite target of Internet leftists, who often refer to me as "The Virgin Ben."
The Internet is riddled with writing like this: "In [Ben's] case, it is helpful to remember that some people choose celibacy, while others have it thrust upon them. Poor Ben. He no more chose abstinence than Clarence Thomas chose to be black." "The Virgin Ben also apparently has never had a really great Saturday night ?" "The Virgin Ben, indeed. This guy's 'interview' so completely reeks of repression that I almost feel violated having read it. Like I stepped into someone else's wet dream. It's freakin' eerie, man." "You know I'm starting to feel sorry for this kid. I look into his future and I can see that not once is he ever going to get to have really good hot sweaty sex with Miss Scarlet in the parlor with a bottle of lube. That kind of sex may not approach godliness, but for a few brief moments and a lifetime of memories, it sure feels like it."
Such heated, inarticulate and unreasoned hatred for moral standards should not be shocking. Social liberalism seeks to promote a "live and let live" society wherein all types of deviant behavior is tolerated and accepted. Those on the left have thrust their notion of a "civilized," amoral society upon all of us. The fact of the matter is that "live and let live" directly contradicts the notion of communal society; we all have to abide by certain rules to live together. An amoral society minimizes the rules under which we live together; any change in those rules is bound to affect all of us.
And it has. By discarding traditional morality in favor of amoralism, we have catered to the lowest common denominator. Social liberals have taken control of our culture through music, film, television and other mass media. R-rated films today often include soft-core pornography; television shows like "Friends" promote a fun-filled, promiscuous lifestyle with no consequences; rap music is misogynistic, glorifying its own degradation; pop music holds aloft cultural wrecking balls like Madonna as empowered feminist heroes. Advertisers take advantage of the "sex sells" phenomenon to push our culture to new lows, while teen magazines for young girls push boy-craziness and dispense dating and sex advice.
They have used sex education as a means of indoctrinating children into a cult of moral relativism and hedonism. Following in the footsteps of Alfred Kinsey and his trumped-up research, the sex education movement has viewed its goal as the promotion of an acceptant and inevitable attitude about teen promiscuity. "[Our goal] is to be ready as educators and parents to help young people obtain sex satisfaction before marriage," wrote Planned Parenthood staffer Lena Levine in 1953. "By sanctioning sex before marriage, we will prevent fear and guilt." Fifty-two years later, Levine's dream has come true; we live in a society where condoms are dispensed to seventh-graders, where 12-year-olds are told about the glories of oral sex and where children are given the "opportunity to develop their values and increase self-esteem," to quote Debra W. Haffner, former president of the Sexuality Information and Education Council of the United States.
The most extreme manifestation of the new culture is the mainstream acceptance of pornography. Pornography is no longer relegated to the dark corners of the newsstand or the skuzzy box in the video store; it's now in your inbox. It's on the radio, the television and the billboards. We live in an America that makes Paris Hilton a cultural icon and Jenna Jameson a New York Times best-selling author.
We have successfully defined deviancy down; the deviant is now considered normal. Meanwhile, we have defined deviancy up; the normal is now considered deviant. And the effects upon my generation -- the porn generation -- have been disastrous. We are apathetic about morality, and that apathy translates into nihilism and narcissism -- and in the end, into generational self-destruction. Like it or not, the porn generation is the future of this country.
But the future is not yet lost. Social conservatives must not retreat and cloister themselves; they must fight back against the continuing destruction of standards. Together, we can restore America's innocence.

Not thinkpiecy enough for me.
That national review article on her book is an annihilation. I won't post it because it's got too many segments talking about how dunham is emblematic of this generation (fuck you, and fuck her) but they laid it on.
this is really weird, but she is pretty much modern day nobility. By aristocratic standards this is pretty tame family behavior.
And the art they drew of her was vulgar and ugly too :holeupyeaaah, I had reservations while reading that. on the one hand, it's really satisfying seeing Dunham getting taken to task over her voice of a generation posturing; on the other, the overall tone of the piece is one that's already made up it's mind that it's ok to be infinitely vitriolic towards her character because...she's privileged and was raised surrounded by wall portraits of vaginas. I think the art reflects the intent pretty well.

Anyone who seriously considers themselves the voice of a generation can fuck right off. Especially since her generation (which is also mine), was largely defined by low wage service jobs, and a real struggle. Here's this chick from inherited wealth thinking her stories represent us, like she's the J.D. Saliger of our age. Comparing Dunham to Salinger is like comparing Jason Richardson to Michael Jordan. The whole thing is a farce. Even though I've been amused by the show at times. it isn't even close to being "voice of a generation" worthy. Her show is a glorified Sex and the City.

She has some talent. I mean, her show isn't great, but it isn't bad, and it's often quite funny. She might not be an elite, Bill Federman-esque talent, but she's better than a lot of people who get paid to write.

On Saturday, HBO’s Lena Dunham sent a “cease and desist” letter to TruthRevolt demanding that we remove an article we posted last Wednesday on sections of her book, Not That Kind of Girl. The letter threatened legal action if we did not both remove that article, as well as print a note, the suggested language of which read as follows:QuoteWe recently published a story stating that Ms. Dunham engaged in sexual conduct with her sister. The story was false, and we deeply regret having printed it. We apologize to Ms. Dunham, her sister, and their parents, for this false story.
We refuse. We refuse to withdraw our story or apologize for running it, because quoting a woman’s book does not constitute a “false” story, even if she is a prominent actress and left-wing activist. Lena Dunham may not like our interpretation of her book, but unfortunately for her and her attorneys, she wrote that book – and the First Amendment covers a good deal of material she may not like.
In particular, the letter from Ms. Dunham’s lawyers labeled as “false and defamatory” our claims that she “experiment[ed] sexually with her younger sister Grace,” “experimented with her six-year younger sister’s vagina,” and “use[d] her little sister at times essentially as a sexual outlet.” In her desire to curb First Amendment freedoms, Dunham’s attorneys threatened legal action seeking “millions of dollars; punitive damages which can be a multiple of up to ten times actual damages; and injunctive relief.”
We assume that both Ms. Dunham and her attorneys are capable of reading Ms. Dunham’s book, which contains the following direct excerpts:
If Ms. Dunham says that our quotations from her book were “false,” or that our interpretation of those events was libelous under the law, then we look forward to asking her, in her deposition, about why they appeared in her book. We also look forward to asking her why she believes it is now appropriate for a 28-year-old woman to make light of opening her baby sister’s vagina, paying her with candies for prolonged kisses on the lips in the manner of a “sexual predator,” or masturbating in bed next to her prepubescent sister.
If Ms. Dunham says that our quotations from her book were “false,” then she should explain whether her statements in which she accused a young college Republican of rape were also false. We look forward to asking her about that in her deposition as well, given that she has reportedly refused to cooperate with Oberlin police to track down the alleged perpetrator, which leaves other young women at risk if her accusations are true.
It is worth noting that Truth Revolt was far from the only outlet to point out these troubling sections in Ms. Dunham’s book. National Review’s Kevin Williamson wrote of “Lena Dunham’s sexual abuse, specifically, of her younger sister, Grace” – the article that first alerted us to Ms. Dunham’s disturbing writings. The Daily Caller’s Derek Hunter has written of Ms. Dunham’s “gleeful sexual abuse of her infant sister, Grace.”
After Truth Revolt’s report on Ms. Dunham’s book, Ms. Dunham took to Twitter with what she termed a “rage spiral,” terming accusations that “I molested my little sister isn’t just LOL – it’s really fucking upsetting and disgusting.” She added, “And by the way, if you were a little kid and never looked at another little kid’s vagina, well, congrats to you.” No, congrats to you, Ms. Dunham – you’ve managed to lead a life so free of criticism that you find it “upsetting and disgusting” when some folks are offended that you “carefully spread open” your baby sister’s vagina, or paid her to kiss you on the mouth in the manner of a “sexual predator,” or masturbated in bed next to her as a teenager. In the real world, folks find such behavior upsetting and disgusting, not reporting on such behavior.
Bullies like Ms. Dunham may believe that firing off legal threats against those who exercise First Amendment rights is perfectly legitimate. But for a woman who proclaims to be an advocate for freedom of speech to attempt to shut down such speech based on her own apparent embarrassment at her own disclosures in her own book demonstrates the totalitarianism of those on the left – and those in the legal and media establishment who enable them.

“I think he thinks he was being really deep by dating a chubby girl,” she writes of one of her many romantic disappointments. But the excess of self from which she suffers most genuinely is not corporal but emotional. Emotionally, she is morbidly obese, the layers of her bloated sense of self deepening like Philip Larkin’s coastal shelf since her birth, if not in fact before, considering the daft contributions of her family. It is an easy thing to mock, and it deserves mocking, but it also deserves understanding.:dead

We now know how Dunham gets her rocks off.
It seems unlikely that a one-year-old would stuff pebbles into her own vagina. . . . Regardless, people can't really condemn an adult for her actions as a a seven-year-old; they can condemn her actions as a 13-year-old and they can condemn her flippant attitude about it all as an adult.
Lena Dunham and the street harassment lady have put feminism back so, so much. On the real, we need to get crazy self absorbed white girls to shut the fuck up.But thirsty black men walking like a schroedingers rape-panther next to a white (not really properly white, but that's not the point) girl doesn't say anything about the rape-culture encouraged by rappers and Cosby.

Jezebel put up an article.
http://jezebel.com/the-right-to-a-sexual-narrative-on-the-lena-dunham-abu-1654187731
"Older siblings often change the younger sibling's diaper, apply diaper cream," added Herbenick. "The point being: genital touching is not in and of itself sexual. As adults, we should know that. We bathe ourselves, we go to the bathroom, we itch ourselves, we touch our genitals for various reasons throughout the day. They really are just another body part. And unless someone is doing something sexual with them, they don't have to be considered sexual.":lawd :rejoice
This brings up something that I think about frequently. To be an adult woman is to have your body be near-universally read as a sexual object when, on the inside, you often feel very different, like a Pokemon or a hungover bag of meat.
On the newly-founded Those Kinds of Girls tumblr, all sorts of anonymous accounts are coming in about childhood memories that are—like Dunham's—uncomfortable, awkward, funny, and to all parties actually involved, non-abusive. I trust these readings. I always think we should trust what people, and particularly women, say about their life experience. If they say they were harmed, we should believe them; if they, like Grace Dunham, say they were not, what do we gain by pushing victimhood on them when they don't want it?:bow
Still there's the question of language to consider. You could say that Dunham could have used some different words. At one point in this chapter, she describes her unrequited affection for her younger sister as manifesting in actions "a sexual predator might do to woo a small suburban girl." But this figurative language, in poor taste given the context—and unremarkable in the context of the many other tone-deaf moments in the memoir—is not in itself telling, not at all. What's she really talking about here? I offer my friends candy; I invite them into my car. I handle nice takeout sandwiches gently, because I want them to be firm when I shove them in my mouth. Am I predatory? Towards sandwiches, absolutely. Am I using dumb language? Oh, for sure. Hinting at a consent problem? Hell motherfucking no.Tone deaf and offensively immature narrative? sounds like my girl :heartbeat
\ It's always women being told what they are/aren't, how they were abused or weren't, or how they should or shouldn't feel. It's all the same shit. I'll let the "victim" speak for herself. (https://twitter.com/simongdunham/status/529317449221824512?s=09)
yep this is totally comparable to a domestic abuse case between two adults. FOH.
The whole defense force of this reminds me of the vagina monologues where a 13 year old gets raped by a woman and then says "if it was rape, it was a good rape"
I feel like people defending this are like "if it was molestation, it was a good molestation."
:what
the bolded explains a lot actually. sorry if my argument sounds like I'm perpetuating a cliche but it sounds like you're trying to take my argument and give it much broader implications than I meant to have. she was a kid, kids do weird shit to each other, especially siblings. I have both examples of genital exploration and legitimate abuse that occured between me and my older brother, and it apparently helps me draw the line between what activies are or aren't abuse between young siblings. Nothing she says sounds extraordinary to me, but her wording inarguably goes a long way to make it uncomfortable to read.yep this is totally comparable to a domestic abuse case between two adults. FOH.

This is not what normal children do. Telling your own sister - with joy - that grandpa is dead just so that she can cuddle you? Even if it's not abuse, wouldn't you agree that putting faith in Dunham's words is a trial? I'm not going to say kids are cuddly wuddly creatures who don't do odd or bad things, and I certainly don't have any siblings to relay an experience, but that just doesn't sound like something a well adjusted child should be doing.The whole defense force of this reminds me of the vagina monologues where a 13 year old gets raped by a woman and then says "if it was rape, it was a good rape"
I feel like people defending this are like "if it was molestation, it was a good molestation."
:what
And it's pretty clear that most of it comes from the fact that Dunham is a woman. It comes off as a molly coddling perverse take on the "innocent woman" cliche. You know, women have such pure thoughts and could never do no harm crap.
I've never made the argument that the vagina pebbles thing was sexual assault or whatever; I think my main point is that Lena Dunham is a shitty person, as evidenced by her "sexual predator" comments, the general tone of her writing, the Indian travel thing someone linked earlier, and the fact that Girls is a shitty show.Yeah I don't argue your opinion of Lena. I even go back and forth on my feelings towards her and her work, but as for the rest of this thread; I said my piece and I'm out.
Man, I must be alone in thinking that diddling your sibling isn't a common thing. Maybe all those animes are right after all?
Please Twins! is a story about three high-school students: Maiku Kamishiro, Karen Onodera, and Miina Miyafuji. The three were drawn together by a photograph of their childhood home which later makes all of them seek out the house in the picture. However, the picture shows only two children, a boy and a girl. The three conclude from this that only one of the girls, either Karen or Miina, can be related to Maiku. The other must be a nonrelative. The only other identifying feature of the pair in the picture is that the boy and the girl have eyes of the same unusual color, a feature that furthers the ambiguity as all three of them share the same eye color.
The main concern of the male lead, Maiku, is that, although he eventually comes to care for both of the girls, he does not know which of them is his sister. In addition, the two girls develop feelings for Maiku, forming a love triangle that cannot be resolved until the truth of their relationship is known. All three main characters are in the predicament of wanting to discover their past versus the risk of losing a romantic relationship.
The events of the story are set the year after Please Teacher! and characters from that series appear in supporting roles throughout Please Twins!.

What's the Indian travel writing thing?http://yourfaveisproblematic.tumblr.com/post/45822118430/lena-dunham
FYI, that country wears you down if you're a cac. It's the closest a white cishet male will ever get to the NYC street harassment video. If some of the thoughts that went through my head had been telepathically live-blogged to a twitter feed after I'd fought off my 100th scam attempt of the day, it wouldn't have looked so good. So I'm going to have to see the receipts before I condemn anyone for an India travel blog.

What. So are you saying that Lena Dunham wouldn't be seen as an abuser if she were a guy? It seems pretty clear to me: Lena Dunham sounds like a narcissist or psychopath from her own writing, yet many feminists are defending her, despite the morbid reality of what would happen if Lena were male. Using the argument that women are always being told what to do or how they should feel in this case seems quite petty given that there's clear sexism at work in regards to many of her defenders support her.
