Ok, we warned you.
We denounce ourselves.
Lena Dunham and Jemima Kirke are fronting a lingerie advert that we can actually relate to https://t.co/oqFDeYPK5b pic.twitter.com/ijmeUwvANe

We do not in anyway relate to this lingerie advert.
Nope.
Not one bit.

The effect of the lingerie is delicately annihilated by @lenadunham's execrable character. @Independent

To this point, it’s not that Lena has a very average looking body (the average size of American women is 14), but it’s what’s on the inside with Lena that makes her even more unattractive.
Women don’t want to be represented in this way, leave our underwear alone.
@Independent eh no. Just put the underwear on a hanger and sell it to me, plain and simple, it shouldn't be a body politics yawnfest!

Body politics. Brilliant. That’s sort of like playing personality politics but dumber.
@Independent This is satire, right? Tell me it's satire. Also it's dinner time and people are eating.

Sure comes off as a joke but sadly no.
In unretouched ads, “Girls” stars Lena Dunham and Jemima Kirke show what women look like in their undies https://t.co/2jzup3jFZj

No. This is not what women look like in their undies, stop pretending you’re doing women a favor by making fools of yourselves.
Lena Dunham and GIRLS co-star Jemima Kirk are the stars of a refreshing new lingerie campaign https://t.co/gty7ddaQ4n

Refreshing? No.
Some lingerie co ( @LonelyLingerie ) is advertising w/Lena Dunham in their ads. Fire the marketing dep't. Now I want to do that heroin.

Bingo.
Feminists, you don’t have to make EVERYTHING an issue.
Let underwear be underwear, you don’t have to make a statement and gross out millions of people while doing it, there isn’t some great underwear oppression thing going on.
"I sure would feel better about myself if I saw Lena Dunham in some ugly underwear,"
said no one ever.
