“ The characters are privileged and somewhat entitled, but privileged, entitled dudes have filled our screens for years, screwing up, searching for themselves, finding out life sucks. It’s time for the girls to have the same chance to be unlikeable-but-realistic on TV. Especially since some of those problems (I’m looking at you, awkward abortion clinic visit) are hardly things that male-oriented TV are going to cover. ”

“ Implying that any medium could adequately represent a particular gender is not only supremely simplistic and sexist—it’s also the underlying problem in all of the Girls critiques that say the show isn’t diverse enough. Girls was built up to be a shred of hope for a feminist-positive TV revolution. And that’s kind of what it is. ”
