One year ago, when Lena Dunham learned that her HBO hit Girls had been parodied in a porn titled This Ain’t Girls XXX, she made no secret of her strong feeling that imitation isn’t always the sincerest form of flattery.
“I wish I had a better attitude about the Girls porn parody,” she tweeted May 23, 2013. “I really can never predict what will trouble me and it’s simply exhausting.”
Hours later, Dunham added that she’d “wracked [her] brain to articulate why I can’t just laugh off a porn parody of Girls. Here are three reasons: 1. Because Girls is, at its core, a feminist action while Hustler is a company that markets and monetizes a male’s idea of female sexuality. 2. Because a big reason I engage in (simulated) onscreen sex is to counteract a skewed idea of that act created by the proliferation of porn 3. Because it grosses me out.”

Yesterday, however, it appeared that Dunham has finally arrived at a happy medium — a downright enthusiastic one, truth be told…

Oooooh…don’t think that Gail Dines will like this news. I’ll bet she was hoping for Lena D as a celeb recruit for her antiporn campaign. Oh, well…win some, lose some.
When I look at Lena Dunham, I think, “Maybe the Jews are right and we should stay away from pigs?” Then I think about bacon and I am able to achieve an erection again.
