Cellulite sucksis a completely natural part of life, and Lena Dunham knows it.
The Girlscreator has used the release of Glamour Magazine'sFebruary issue -- featuring herself and her co-stars on the cover -- to pen a personal mini-essay on Instagram, discussing her body image over the years and thanking the publication for "normalizing the female form" by not retouching her.

Calling out the often-patronising language used to celebrate women who are seen to rage against the status quo, simply by not being born supermodels, she says "When my career started, some people celebrated my look but always through the lens of "isn't she brave? Isn't it such a bold move to show THAT body on TV?"
She continued: "Well, today this body is on the cover of a magazine that millions of women will read, without photoshop, my thigh on full imperfect display."

It shouldn't be a big deal to see a hint of cellulite on the front pages of a women's magazine in 2017, but unfortunately, it still is. For Dunham, it's a small victory worth celebrating.
"Thank you to the women in Hollywood (and on Instagram!) leading the way, inspiring and normalizing the female form in EVERY form, and thank you to @glamourmag for letting my cellulite do the damn thing on news stands everywhere today," she said.

She may be a divisive cultural figure, but Dunham knows a good move from a fashion mag (and some great styling) when she sees it.
