I wanted to post this under the video from the New Yorker Festival interview with Lena, but the channel disabled it's comments; most likely due to the onslaught of disgusting, despicable comments that were/are being left under anything related to the young woman. Hateful, jealous, insecure, narrow minded idiots who can't stand the fact that she had the confidence to create a raw, authentic, intriguing & brilliant tv show, baring her soul and body to the world.
Whats all this molesting her sister about! Ive read her book and what I think people are referring to is when she was like 5 and looked at her sisters vagina or when she and her sister used to sleep in the same bed when she was younger and she touched her own vagina. Come one people, seriously... she was like 5 when all this happened and she was curious about her body, its not like she was going around sexually touching her sister. Kids are curious, she didn't have a sense of what she was doing. I honestly think its so harmless, and to call her a child molester is ridiculous.
I think people want something legitimate to dislike her for and so they cling to that. The only other people I see hating her are either guys who hate her because she's a feminist, or other feminists who seem to hate her because she's not feminist enough or something, neither of which seem very solid.
+Gen J, I completely agree with you. It makes absolutely no sense. Seems more like a witch hunt from ignorant sexist conservative hypocrites. Lena is awesome!!
Because he was attracted to her and some men who are intelligent prefer women who have brains. And why is that her fault that he was flirtatious? She handled it with class.
@@alanamcconnell2977 I apologize. I’m really tired of all the constant criticism and seeing her constantly being picked apart and analyzed. I find it so abusive and frightening how ignorant many people. It’s as though people make negative comments because it’s a trend for those who don’t have a life and can’t think for themselves. I thought he was being rather agressive in his flirtation and although had fun with it for a bit, handled with class. That’s all :-) .
What’s wrong with her saying she doesn’t feel comfortable driving? She has a right to say that. My 87 yr old mother was a solo airplane pilot but hates driving cars. Perhaps you can tell her what she is doing wrong? You’re a joke.
Long rant as to why I think HBO GIRLS is setting the progressive movement back. I just finished HBO GIRLS and realized that Lena Dunham is a genius!!!! She pretends like her stupid show has value and is deep and symbolic and thematic when it's actually just a waste of people's time and money. In reality, all I learned from this show is that Lena Dunham stereotypes her own gender race and socioeconomic status and generalizes her personal experience as that of all unconventional young people who grew up with affluence (like myself). She uses things in her uninteresting life as universal truths while desperately trying to be a hipster. Also the constant shock value sex is not realistic. I am beyond proud to say that I am nothing like Lena Dunham, and am beyond pissed that her "Gay Best Friend/ handbag" on the show, Elijah, literally fits every single gay male stereotype that most gay men I know struggle with since we are so heavily stereotyped by the media. Lena Dunham should have had a show dedicated to showing that Elijah is more than a collection of gay male stereotypes, but an actual person. But would that serve Lena Dunham's ego, nope it would not. I love Jessa (Jemima Kirke) so much because we have similar world views, but Lena Dunham has set our generation back a lot by writing characters of color and character who are gay that literally fit every stereotype in the book. It's not sattire, it's naivitie and it's disgusting. So many gay men don't want to come out of the closet because they only see one kind of gay man on television (essentially Elijah on the show). I don't know any gay men that fit every stereotype that Lena Dunham throws on us; and we are already so heavily stereotyped, people constantly make assumptions about us. Lena Dunham, you have not set us forward, you have set us back. And I hope you stop trying to be a progressive because you are not. I hope you stop foolishly using your celebrity status to pretend like you're helping people. You are dehumanizing them and hurting them by stereotyping them this bad.
I have never identified with a character more I. That I have faults. I live with anxiety and she makes me feel calm and understood. She wrote a character with many faults. She is not the only one I charge of casting and she has co writers. Why do you put all the blame on one writer? She also acted and directed. Do you know how hard that is to do in her early 20s? She has apologized and heard the criticism. She has made Herculean efforts to apologize and make changes accordingly. You all sound like mindless lemmings. It’s so boring.
When he asked about the show teaching young kids, she clearly said twice it is for woman's rights. I'm all for both. Why the hell is she so close minded? There is benefit to go all around.
if you have a normal functioning brain you most definitely can learn how to drive. Just like anyone can learn anything. It all comes down to if you want to or not. I cant really take her serious..

The pairing of James May with Lena Dunham works really well, they were so charming towards each other
This was such a good interview!!

I love Skavlan. Sending love from germany. ♥️♥️😍
Lena looks healthy and refreshed here..
She is so lovely! I love her so much! She is such inspiration! And I can relate to so much that she has experienced! :D
hahaha that was a funny joke Dridrop =) Lovely, inspiration...yepp if one loves the Russian Gulag system or the Gestaop.
lol why was there so much sexual energy between James and Lena
Because he was attracted to her and some men who are intelligent prefer women who have brains. And why is that her fault that he was flirtatious? She handled it with class.
@@rachelralph1 bruh i wasn't blaming her, why are you so offended haha

Just lovely! May and Dunham! Polar opposites, but you could see the sexual tension g'on.
Oh my god, I love her so much
8:55 she really seems used to dictating to people what they can and can't joke about..
Where do you come up with this stuff? Lol
what a mysteriously cool girl
she is actually very funny
tried learning to drive from a woman maybe...?
What’s wrong with her saying she doesn’t feel comfortable driving? She has a right to say that. My 87 yr old mother was a solo airplane pilot but hates driving cars. Perhaps you can tell her what she is doing wrong? You’re a joke.
Let's get Lena Dunham on Top Gear. The Stig Vs The Dunham. 👩🤘
James May in Lu'u'urve with the Dunham!
Lena 💜
Nice woman.
Nope......
@@liamdunphy7496”nope” ? So articulate
Anyone who thinks Skavlan is a chauvinist (yes, they exist) should watch this segment
great job Lena!

I’m. You may need to watch it again and take notes lol. Totally over your head. She in no way indicates closed mindedness.
@@rachelralph1 you sound close minded
@@choosnau 😆
Would love to see her on a camping trip all by herself ....
if you have a normal functioning brain you most definitely can learn how to drive. Just like anyone can learn anything. It all comes down to if you want to or not. I cant really take her serious..
Dont be so mean.
It’s like talking to a plant. Lol. Not even worth the effort of explaining why on earth you care that she feels like she is a bad driver.
Lena Dunham is awful.
There are so many of you. Like Trump followers. I give up. lol
@@rachelralph1 don’t give up, bubbeleh! And don’t look up neither!
Horrible human.
Lena ❤❤
