Feminist actress and comedian Lena Dunham, who falsely portrayed herself as a victim of sexual assault in her 2014 memoir, flashed her genitals on HBO’s Girls on Sunday.
In the episode titled “Hello Kitty,” Dunham’s character Hannah, who is a teacher, sat down with her school’s principal to discuss a series of complaints lodged against her.
Tonight on @girlshbo Hannah pulls a unique move I like to call the slide n' spread

To diffuse the situation, Dunham’s skirt-clad Hannah pulls from Sharon Stone in Basic Instinct by uncrossing her legs and exposing her vagina to him.
“Hannah pulling a Basic Instinct is one of the strangest things we’ve ever written on the show,” Dunahm said of the episode. “It came out in the writers’ room and we kept thinking it would somehow disappear, and then — lo and behold — it was still in the script the day that I had to open my legs on set.”
The 29-year-old, who is an advocate against sexual assault and rape, added her character is “allowed to be the kind of woman who would flash her vagina at someone.”
Dunham further explained the only reason she was embarrassed over exposing her vagina to her shrinking audience: “Mostly because I wish that I had a fuller bush. I just think it would look better — the whole thing would work better.”
While the show was originally a hit for HBO, rating for Girls have steadily declined, and the show will conclude after its sixth season.
In her memoir, Not That Kind of Girl, the Girls star and creator claimed she was raped by a campus Republican named Barry while she attended Oberlin College in Ohio.
An exhaustive investigation into the claim by Breitbart News yielded no evidence and Dunham’s story crumbled as it became apparent the story was without any merit.
