"  Girls star Lena Dunham has spoken out about feminist blog Jezebel, following their decision to publish un-retouched images of her Vogue covershoot, describing their actions as &amp;quot;gross.&amp;quot; Dunham explained that she normally considered the site as &amp;quot;smart&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;funny&amp;quot;, but said in an interview with Grantland&amp;#039;s Bill Simmons that she would now struggle to enjoy their work because of &amp;quot;such a monumental error in their approach to feminism.&amp;quot; Jezebel posted the before and after shots of Dunham&amp;#039;s recent shoot with Vogue, claiming that the photoshopping demonstrated Vogue&amp;#039;s desire to have a &amp;quot;taller, longer-limbed, svelter version of reality&amp;quot;. Explaining her feelings about Jezebel&amp;#039;s post, Dunham said: &amp;quot;I was kind of scared to see the un-retouched images of me. I was like, maybe I&amp;#039;m delusional and I don&amp;#039;t look how I think I look. And it was like \u2014 they smoothed a line here, and shaved a line on my neck. It was the most minimal retouching. &amp;quot;I felt completely respected by Vogue. I felt like thank you for removing the one line from my face because I&amp;#039;m 27 years old and shouldn&amp;#039;t have that there, I appreciate this and instead of going like, &amp;#039;Hey we kind of f**ked up, these pictures aren&amp;#039;t that retouched, Lena, enjoy the Vogue spread that you&amp;#039;ve been excited about since you were 8 years old&amp;#039;. &amp;quot;They were like, &amp;#039;She&amp;#039;s not retouched, but she could&amp;#039;ve been.&amp;#039; It was this weird almost political maneuvering that I just had a lot of trouble respecting.&amp;quot; Watch Lena Dunham&amp;#039;s interview with Bill Simmons:      Dunham&amp;#039;s third season of Girls is currently airing on HBO. It was recently commissioned for a fourth season. Photo credit: Karwai Tang/WireImage Via Digital Spy "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
