Do you know any guys who watch the show who has a crush on Lena?


I think sometimes she's adorable but most guys can't get past her weight. Like one guy friend told me she has pretty eyes ξ€², whatever. Do you know anyone who's crushing on Lena? I know plenty who love Marnie and Jessa..

No. And I'd like to add that it is 100% not her weight. She doesn't take care of herself. The actress that is. She has no body tone, shoulders slumped and visceral fat highly evident around her organs and a flat backside. She's also pretty flat chested.

No self respecting man has a crush on "Hannah."

LOL, NO!

To be honest w/ you, I don't know any guys that do watch GIRLS!
The only people that I know who watch GIRLS are all females!

😝 I've actually gotten some guys hooked on the show! I make them watch it with me and they end up liking it for whatever reason. None of them seem to like Hannah though, like they're not attracted to her..

I just finished season 2, but I'm not impressed yet. People raved about how it's supposedly realistic, authentic and feminist, but at least so far, it's not.

reply

I cant help but find a lot of sexism in people commenting on how unrealistic it is for a girl like Lena Dunham having good looking boyfriends on her tv show yet they have never made any comments on someone like Seth Rogen, Jonah Hill, Kevin James, Josh Gad, Patton Oswalt... etc etc ...doing tv shows/movies where their characters have no problem getting with hot chicks.

Hannah's undesirability goes way beyond her physical appearance.

reply

Lol. Like Louie CK and Mark Maron getting laid on every episode of their shows

Indeed!

Haha George on Seinfeld! πŸ˜› That was the most unbelievable. He wasn't attractive but worse than that he was such a petty, selfish person and girls still wanted him!

Exactly this. I do know dudes

All of those guys are better at acting than Lena Dunham, so you can't compare them. Some of them have also made serious strides at getting in shape.

reply

You are clearly missing the point. The fact that you are scrutinizing Lena for her looks or clothes while the guys I mentioned never get any flack for dressing like slobs or having a big gut just further proves it. When an actress is a bigger girl she is called an ugly fat cow and gets made fun of by late night talk show hosts or on SNL and MAD TV or FAMILY GUY or SOUTH PARK while a fat actor is considered to be a big jolly teddy bear. If an actress doesn't look like she walked off of a Paris or London Runway or out of the pages of a Victoria Secret catalog and doesn't have a Disney Princess face she is blatantly attacked while a guy doesn't have to deal with any of that BS.

reply

*Everyone* is made fun of in South Park.

reply

Even if that's true, it doesn't make it any less realistic for Girls.

Yeah, but those guys don't get naked. I'm sure if Kevin James showed his penis off people would complain. Also, Lena is unlikable in general and her character is unlikable. If she had a great personality, I doubt she'd get as much hate for the nudity.

Honestly, it's not that she gets naked, it's that she does it for shock value and when it's not necessary in the scene. Like, okay, she's topless in bed, but did we need to see her pull her bathing suit to the side to flash her vagina so it could get sun?! Jessa's nude scene was for comedy reasons, so it didn't feel gratuitous. The whole point was how uncomfortable they were making Ray feel in his own apt.

reply

She looked good in the first season when she had longer hair. She has a pretty face, no doubt about it. I'd take her over Zosia Mamet, probably.

reply

really? I think Zosia's by far the cutest.

reply

Yeah, me. Its why I started watching
