Anytime Lena Dunham is trending online these days, it’s typically for some headline-making political comment. However, the Girls creator seems to have taken it too far for some people this time around.
On her podcast, Women of the Hour, the 30-year-old actress tackled the topic of abortion, saying that although she hasn’t had one, she wished she had. Dunham began by talking about how she was raised by her mother to be pro-choice.
“From an early age, she taught my younger sibling and me to say ‘anti-choice’ instead of ‘pro-life’ because she wanted to make sure that we knew that everyone is pro-life,” Dunham said. “Some people are anti-choice.”
Despite her pro-choice view, Dunham realized that even she unknowingly carried with her a stigma around the topic.
“One day, when I was visiting a Planned Parenthood in Texas a few years ago, a young girl walked up to me and asked me if I’d like to be a part of her project in which women share their stories of abortions,” she recalled. “I sort of jumped. ‘I haven’t had an abortion,’ I told her. I wanted to make it really clear to her that as much as I was going out and fighting for other women’s options, I myself had never had an abortion. And I realized then that even I was carrying within myself stigma around this issue. Even I, the woman who cares as much as anybody about a woman’s right to choose, felt it was important that people know I was unblemished in this department.”
She added, “Now I can say that I still haven’t had an abortion, but I wish I had.”

The so-called women's (wyminz?) movement is pro-choice, as long as the choice is to abort!
It would sure take a strong set of beer goggles!
Really better that she doesn’t reproduce. She sexuality molested her little sister. What’s to stop her from molesting her child? Sick narcissist.
Also known as a triple bagger: one bag to cover her face, a second bag to cover your face in case hers falls off, and a third bag to barf in if both fall off.
I thought the third bag was for your dog’s head so he doesn’t lose respect for you.
Thank you, that was a very thorough explanation and it makes a lot of sense.
Can’t be a real card-carrying member of the Sisterhod Of Modern Womyn if you haven’t killed a baby or two in your own womb.
