This is yet another example of Jezebel trolling for outrage.

"How/when was Girls supposed to represent women from all backgrounds?"

You're what's wrong with the contemporary feminist community (note how I didn't say you're what's wrong with feminism, full-stop).
Maybe the libido of these guys rises proportionally to their romantic interest? The more they like you, the more they want to make you orgasm? That's how it is with me. I know plenty of women who are the same way.

I've seen this attitude before.
That sounds horrid. Bonus points on the D'Souza slam.

Agreed.
Co-sign.
It's kinda disappointing to hear so many self-proclaimed feminists in this comment section subscribing to patriarchal views on male height.
