Other passages in the book recounting interactions of a sexual nature, starting when she was seven years old, with her then one-year-old sister Grace also attracted significant controversy,[1] and prompted numerous think pieces about children's sexuality and personal boundaries.[2][3][4]
There need to be a section in her page that actually outlines her controversy sexually assaulting her 1 year old sister. This is only ONE line in her Wiki, yet she is making videos on youtube trying to denounce sexual assault.
These sources are very clear:
"Dunham writes that “curiosity got the best” of her and she opened her sister’s vagina"
[5]
"She describes masturbating while in bed next to her younger sister Grace"
[6]”

- I've redacted some of your comments (in compliance with WP:BLP) which in between the quotes ventured into labelling, speculation, and original research. They did not constitute a suggestion for improving the article. However your points have all been made before in better ways, littered throughout this page and its archives. I wish to mainly point out that this is a biography covering the whole of her life and career. There is a separate article for the book where this matter is discussed more fully. If you have a specific suggestion for improving the text of this article, or that one, please make it, but I advise you to keep it encyclopaedic and not add your own opinions. -- zzuuzz (talk) 18:19, 11 August 2016 (UTC)

"In the book, Dunham writes about being sexually assaulted by an Oberlin College classmate, which resulted in controversy over the accuracy of her account[52][53] and a case of mistaken identity when a former Oberlin College student named Barry (the pseudonym used for Dunham's alleged attacker in her book) lawyered up to ensure people don’t associate him with the content."
Besides being a terrible run-on sentence, the above passage contains the phrase: "Lawyered up". This is an inaccurate colloquialism that has no place in an article based on fact.
