" Lena Dunham is no stranger to criticism, and she&amp;#x27;s often open to poking a little fun at herself (see: Oscars opener where she&amp;#x27;s eating naked in a bathroom stall). But one thing she&amp;#x27;s not brushing off or taking lightly? The upcoming Girls porn parody, This Ain&amp;#x27;t Girls XXX. Porn parodies of popular TV shows and movies&amp;amp;#8212;and even ice cream brands&amp;amp;#8212;are nothing new, so it&amp;#x27;s not terribly surprising that Hustler would pick Girls, a show with plentiful sex scenes and a name that basically already sounds like a dirty movie if you just add an exclamation point on the end. So why does Lena Dunham, who clearly isn&amp;#x27;t opposed to on-screen sex, seem so uncomfortable with the idea? Well, she&amp;#x27;s got three reasons: 1. Because Girls is, at its core, a feminist action while Hustler is a company that markets and monetizes a male&amp;#x27;s idea of female sexuality&amp;amp;mdash; Lena Dunham (@lenadunham) May 24, 2013 2. Because a big reason I engage in (simulated) on-screen sex is to counteract a skewed idea of that act created by the proliferation of porn&amp;amp;mdash; Lena Dunham (@lenadunham) May 24, 2013 3. Because it grosses me out.&amp;amp;mdash; Lena Dunham (@lenadunham) May 24, 2013 She also tweeted that she wished she had a better attitude about the whole thing, but it&amp;#x27;s clearly bugging her. Regardless of your feelings on porn, I think most people would think it was pretty gross to see something you poured your heart and soul into turned into a dirty joke of a movie. But more important, she makes a really good point about how and why she portrays sex scenes on Girls. We may not all always like the sex scenes on her show, but she certainly shows a more complex and at times more realistic view of sex than one might see in a typical porn. Think of the first-season scene where Hannah tells Adam, &amp;quot;That was so good. I almost came,&amp;quot; versus a typical adult movie where the woman starts screaming all over the place practically the second the dude touches her. We&amp;#x27;re not totally opposed to porn around here, but I&amp;#x27;m really glad we have Lena&amp;#x27;s version of a sex scene as well. Do you think Lena makes good points about her discomfort with the porn parody? Do you think it&amp;#x27;s unfair of her to be upset since she puts so much sex in Girls? Um, do you kind of want to see it either way just to see how they interpreted the controversial show? XXX: *How Much Does Your Guy Like Porn?
