Lina Dunham continues agitation in support of legal abortions! After admitting that she never did an abortion, a storm of criticism and accusations of tactlessness of the statement came upon her. Attempts of the actress to justify himself and explain the true meaning of what was said, alas, did not lead to anything, but only intensified the harassment in social networks. The girl did not drop her hands and wrote an essay for Variety, in which she tried to convey the reasons for the importance of the struggle for women's rights.
Lina Dunham was never afraid of frank conversations, but in her column and essay was as restrained in statements as possible, avoiding categorical.
I grew up in a society where it is customary to loudly proclaim the protection of women's rights! I do not hide and openly talk about the access of girls to legal and safe methods of abortion. It is important for me to convey that each of us has the right to know about this and to claim support from relatives and doctors. I realize the importance of this topic, because once I was in a clinic with a terrible diagnosis of the chronic pathology of the reproductive system. I was very scared of the number of prescribed procedures, but even more horror I experienced from the incompetence of the attending physician.
In the essay, Lina listed seven ways to break the stigma of the women's issue and urged her supporters not to be afraid to talk about "inconvenient for society" topics, donate money to science and disseminate information about the woman's reproductive health:
Stop stigmatizing the topic of women's health! I, like many girls, are afraid of introducing ill-conceived innovations in medicine, but I feel even more fear when women do not have the opportunity to seek help from a qualified specialist, this leads to terrible consequences. Suffer not only the woman, but also the family, work, community, nation.

At the end of the essay, Lina noted that this is not only a problem for every single woman, but for society as a whole.
We will not surrender! Cinema, television, tabloids will help us show the real situation, telling about personal tragedies, and not about fictional stories.
