Lena Dunham - Fat, Child Molesting Attention Whore and Her Trainwreck of a Family

[George Floyd Sneed]

I never understood Antonoff's attraction to Dunham in the first place;

She is very well connected. If you’re ambitious enough and know that knowing the right people is key to staying afloat, then someone is going to put up with her shit, at least at first.

This is what the apartment used to be, I think.

So I'm watching this with the knowledge that Dunham was responsible for picking out everything in the apartment, and even though we don't get to see much of the apartment, it's cracking my shit up. That HIDEOUS shelving unit in the room he used as a studio? Now that I've seen the kind of shit she put in her own apartment I know for certain that she is totally to blame for that, plus the animal wallpaper that looks like it belongs in a kid's room, plus the ugly, fleshy-peach color on some of the walls (seriously, the space looks so choppy and incoherent, I can't tell wtf is even going on). As for the kitchen, "I like the orange [cabinets]," and an old, non-working plastic clock with a pic of himself at age 15 on the face, because "Nothing bad had happened yet in my life." No mention of anything else he might have liked--not the pastel-tinted cookware on display, or inadequate open shelves that mean the countertop is perennially cluttered, or (in 2015!) the by-then basic-bitch white subway tile on the walls and ghastly accent wall covered in reclaimed wood and adorned with giant tin sign letters that read "J L." Seriously, I expected to see a "Keep Calm and Carry On" or "Live, Love, Laugh" poster, because when Dunham's taste isn't falling flat on its face like an awkward fatgirl, it's slipping into a coma out of sheer boredom.

The bulk of the interview takes place in a neighborhood diner (where he appears much more relaxed than he does in the apartment), or in a recording studio in NYC. When he does mention Dunham, he hesitates for a moment before he says her name, as if he's reluctant to. When she calls him on the phone to see what he's doing, and he's telling her he's on the way to the studio, he's really awkward and tense, and signs off with an "I love you" that sounds forced. He's much less awkward when he talks about how she's usually the first one to listen to new stuff as they're lying in bed together, which is pretty personal, but when talking directly to her, even about mundane shit? He sounds strained. Interesting.

 

[Tasty Tatty]

Both have awful taste, that's why they were with each other.

I never understood Antonoff's attraction to Dunham in the first place; surely, as a creative type, he's met quirkily self-conscious, creative women who are actually attractive and nice, who understand reciprocity and boundaries, and are not all-devouring sucking vortices of neediness?

The explanation is simple. He likely meet her as a starving artist, and he was only glad that the whale was paying bills, while he could devote his time to his art. Wanna bet that this Rolling Stone vid was thanks to Lena connections? It seems very likely to me. He is now slightly more accomplished, and so he could afford to lose his patience finally.

He went from Scarlett Johansson to Lena Dunham...talk about a downgrade.

He's cute in a quirky way, but knowing he's had sex with Lena just kills any attraction I had for him.

 

[Gorilla Tessellator]

I think I have to retract what I said about Jack Antonoff. So the song that was clearly famous "We are Young" by fun., became a hit shortly before he started dating Lena (song became big in late 2011, and the relationship started April 2012). I guess then he had money to pay the bills, at least then. I was wrong.

There must have been some other reason they dated, and it might be his emotional vulnerability. Also he might simply be into fat chicks (ew).

I dunno. He screams insufferable hipster douchebag to me, just like Lena does. They were probably made for each other on that basis alone, but at least he is talented (I guess) and she isn't good at anything as far as I can tell. Maybe she can rein in the insufferability for a bit until someone is hooked.

TBH I think them both being Jews whose formative years were spent in New York had a lot to do with it. Also Jack is rather milquetoast, and those type of guys tend to end up with more dominate women anyways.

Looks like Lena's sister, now called Cyrus, has a memoir about gender (of course) scheduled for release in October; it's already received some glowing reviews. I wonder how Lena's going to make it all about her since she can't stand her sister's autonomy or that Cyrus is a perfect avatar of the current woke zeitgeist, which certainly beats being the self-professed voice of a generation in Lena's world.

The sad thing is that Cyrus has defended Lena from people pointing out how child molesty she (Lena) is. I guess blood thicker than water yadda yadda applies here. I personally wouldn't have.

Oh yeah, there's been some discussion about that throughout this thread. Instead of blaming Lena, "Cyrus" blames heteronormative society and the patriarchy. It's probably easier to compartmentalize that way. She's been brainwashed by her lib family to the point where it's "them against the world," even if they're the ones actively abusing her or minimizing said abuse. Not much different from a cult or isolated religious sect, hmm.

"If we were living in a gay society, it'd be normal that siblings finger each other, duh".

These people are very clueless about how they "help" LGBT causes by trying to use it to defend their degeneracy and lack of self-control.

With that being said, it's not Lena's fault, not society, that she doesn't know boundaries. It's their own family's fault for not teaching these girls what it meant and enforce self-respect of their bodies and what privacy means. As Lauren Southern said, Lena's life can be summed up as "too much information". Go on, Lena, be a whore, but that shouldn't be anybody's business but your own.

Sex play among unsupervised little kids ("playing doctor") is not a big deal.

Endlessly boasting about it afterward as an adult is extraordinarily creepy. In print.

That's definitely normal behavior at a certain age, when the children involved are around the same age. The age difference between the sisters is enough that it's considered inherently predatory.

Spoiler

Child sexual abuse includes any sexual contact between an adult and a child or a teen. It can also include sexual contact between children when one child is more powerful than the other because of age (usually 3 years older or more), size, or intellectual development.

...

While sexual behaviors in children are “developmentally expected” and a normal part of growing up, sometimes children are involved in activities with one another that can be inappropriate, coercive, or abusive. You can learn to assess situations by asking yourself:
● Is this behavior causing a problem for the child or other children?
● Is one child larger in size and/or is more than three years older in age?
● Does one child have greater mental, emotional, or physical ability?
● Does one child appear to have been coerced into the activity through threats, bribes, or physical force?

Yeah but if kids keep doing it beyond the point they should know better it becomes abuse instead of just typical childhood curiosity. Lena admits to doing creepy shit well into her teens, which absolutely is abuse. Shit when she was 7 is gross and she shouldn't have shared it, but that's young enough to just be a kid not knowing any better. Shit she did as a teen though there's no excuse for.

I've mentioned before but I think her sister trying to deny it was abuse ultimately is just an example of the sadly common reaction of sex abuse victims trying to frame what they went through as not being abuse. Hell Milo Yianopollis did the same thing and got booted from brietbart for it. That shit is so horribly damaging and victims feel so much shame and confusion they often try to deny it was even abuse to try and cope.

Lena update (the frumpening continues):

For reference, this is what she looked like with the same guy (director Matt Wolf) back in 2015:

I'd be very curious to know if HBO still genuinely believes Lena's "voice of a generation" self-hype or if it's all just nepotism.

Who said Lena's the voice of a generation? She doesn't seem to have a fanbase or popularity.

Lena's character said it in the Girls pilot episode (at 3:10); it was meant to show her delusion and narcissism:

Holy crap, she's just about gone full-on Jewish Grandma. Granted, she doesn't have her hair done, but she makes up for it with hunchbacked posture worthy of an 80-year-old. She's also got the "Wear too much random gold and/or designer jewelry because you own it, and add an in-your-face ugly ugly designer bag and shoes that are meant for more polished and sophisticated outfits. That shit's not going to show itself off, don't you know." I know she has absolutely no taste or sense of design, despite being raised among artists, but I never cease to be astonished at how aesthetically re.tarded she is.

Her publicist, and anybody who is in a position to make money by working with her, that's who.

I disagree. Grandma Yetta had style.
