    Here is the issue: Is someone like Lena Dunham, an activist/actress who has accused the right wing of abusing women through a variety of means (like not wanting to pay for Obama Care mandated birth control of by being pro choice) an utter hypocrite?

    Because in her own book "Not That Kind of Girl" she admits to sexually molesting her own younger sister ("fiddling with her private parts, hugging and kissing her in a manner reminiscent of a child predator, "I took to bribing her for time and affection...[I’d give her] three pieces of candy if I could kiss her on the lips for just five seconds... basically anything a sexual predator might do to woo a small suburban girl, I was trying,” ).

    Judge for yourself the article that quotes her own words about herself that has her in a rage. And judge the left wing as it flies to her defense claiming people just don't "get" her sort of "humor". I didn't know child on child sexual abuse was funny.

    How old were they?? BOTH. I have no idea who Lena Dunham is.

    Rarely can these social liberals hide their depravity for long. She is probably part of the "incest between siblings should be legal" movement.

    were they both children playing doctor.... give me a break

    as an adult she knows it was wrong, as a child experimenting she did not, many children go through this phase, when adults do it it's unacceptable as they should know better

    maybe it was her experiences growing up made her a defender of women's rights.... kids grow, kids learn right from wrong (most of em)

    Okay, I get it now, a YOUNG WOMAN recalling childhood memories with some glib language that the RIGHT parsed and then decided to POUNCE on. Do Conservatives EVER pick on people their own size and 'weight class' or do they ALWAYS PUNCH DOWN?? Why in the hell would they even care about
    the meandering thoughts and/or REVELATIONS of a 28 year old young woman?? What is wrong with these people??

    from USA Today...

    an exclusive statement to Time magazine, Dunham says she is "dismayed" over the "interpretation" of some of the event she describes in Not That Kind of Girl. She goes on to say:

    "First and foremost, I want to be very clear that I do not condone any kind of abuse under any circumstances.

    "Childhood sexual abuse is a life-shattering event for so many, and I have been vocal about the rights of survivors. If the situations described in my book have been painful or triggering for people to read, I am sorry, as that was never my intention. I am also aware that the comic use of the term 'sexual predator' was insensitive, and I'm sorry for that as well.

    "As for my sibling, Grace, she is my best friend, and anything I have written about her has been published with her approval."

    Your doctor gives you candy to kiss you? If he doesnt then where do you get they were playing "doctor" from.. Or this is some more wacky "common sense"?

    I judge that only people with serious issues would choose to get obsessed about kids playing doctor.

    They were children and it sounds like it was typical sexual exploration and curiosity which can manifest itself in awkward and bizarre ways, but leave it up to the Republican base to judge people for what they did as a seven year old.

    One of the "kids" was a baby. I find it truly bizarre that you actually think a baby was a consenting participant in "playing doctor".

    It is difficult to believe she would proudly announce her perverse abuse of her baby sister to the world as she has.

    Didn't she just claim that a random republican raped her?

    What are you having trouble understanding? That Freshair was asking whether or not this was a case where some kids at this stage explore other kids genitilia, or the terminology associated with it?

    NO, that is not true. You did NOT answer the question. What where their ages?? Too bad yet another area of knowledge is lacking on this board--this
    one about adolescent girls.

    Agreed.

    Age is a factor.

    Can anybody answer the question of the ages of the two girls?

    Break denied! No where in Lena Dunham's self provided claim was there any reciprocal role playing going on.
    It appears something more serious was going on. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Child-on-child_sexual_abuse

    You'd think after victimizing her own sister she would be more sensitive to charges of victimization when she hurls them at others.

    And i pointed out the strangeness of handing out candy.. You seem to be missing that part.... I wonder why... Perhaps you need to go outside more.

    "In one paragraph, Dunham wrote that she offered her then-toddler sister "three pieces of candy if I could kiss her on the lips for five seconds ... basically anything a sexual predator might do to woo a small suburban girl." "

    Heck she says it herself...

    What is wrong with a woman that would sexually exploit her own sister?

    Whether her sister is her pal or not what went on when the older child sexually exploited the younger child is sick and wrong.

    7 and 2 if I recall correctly. She is getting blasted by everyone including feminists because even they all agree that at 7 years old you are old enough to know better than to be playing with another persons itsy bits.

    I had to look her up as well she is just a feminist writer for some blog......no one important.

    It doesn't matter how old she was at the time before molestation is molestation. Why are you defending molesters? Did NAMBLA make a big contribution to the dems this election cycle?

    Hey, I was being kind to call it "obsession". Other words came to mind.

    I have to agree. Child on child sexual abuse is sick, undoubtedly!
    The older child was seven at the time of the incident, by the way, which was not a one of a kind, if you read Dunham's accounts in her own book
