“‘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.”
“I realised 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.”
“Now I can say that I still haven’t had an abortion, but I wish I had.”
The most vile thing @lenadunham has ever said. I’m pro-choice, but an abortion isn’t something you should wish to go through. https://t.co/rclghmqddc

As someone who has had an abortion, pls stop Lena Dunham. PLEASE STOP.

An abortion is not some fun activity. It’s a terrifying procedure that many women have to go through extreme, dangerous lengths to get.

There’s a difference between fighting for reproductive rights and wishing you’d had an abortion, @lenadunham. If only you understood that.

Lena Dunham must got a special brand of narcissism. She can make anything, ANYTHING, about her.

I don’t believe abortions are inherently stressful or sad, but its incredibly out-of-touch and privileged for Lena Dunahm to “wish” for one.

How insensitive is Lena Dunham to have the nerve to claim to want to have an abortion???

@lenadunham No woman wants to have an abortion for the experience. You are ridiculous. https://t.co/wMWwvbFbmM

LOL @lenadunham no one “wishes” they had an abortion. You can support a cause without it directly having affected you & still create change.
