Warning: this is NOT an article for young readers. I have included passages from Lena Dunham’s book that make me literally, sick to my stomach… real nausea… pukey sick.

Oh weird. Remember this?  In the midst of all this sexual harassment, here’s who leads the pack:  Lena Dunham.

I just remembered an old post I did about Dunham’s book called Not That Kind of Girl. Bradford Thomas wrote about the former HBO’s Girls star “experimenting sexually with her younger sister Grace, whom she says she attempted to persuade to kiss her using ‘anything a sexual predator might do.’ In one particularly unsettling passage, Dunham experimented with her six-year younger sister’s vagina. ‘This was within the spectrum of things I did,’ she writes.”

Dunham also used her sister, “essentially as a sexual outlet, bribing her to kiss her for prolonged periods and even masturbating while she is in the bed beside her.”

Dunham also wrote about spreading the legs of her toddler sister to look into her vagina:

“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 got 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.

When the book came out, conservatives were stunned — not only that Dunham would have done that to her sister, but that she would brag about it in a book. Her writings about this seem to normalize totally disgusting behavior.  It’s unacceptable.

Obviously a toddler can’t give consent to having her genitals examined by another person, can’t consent to being kissed, and can’t consent to being in a bed with a masturbating family member.  At the time, liberals excused this behavior — this is Lena being Lena.

Well, since it seems like they are actually trying to deal with the sexual predators in their midst, maybe it’s time to take another look at this very disturbing passage in Dunham’s book.

What do you say, Lena?  Is this appropriate sexual behavior?
