What’s brilliant about [HBO’s Girls] is that [sex is] incredibly difficult to write about. Most sex scenes in movies and TV, the character development stops, the action stops, and there’s sex. And this is the exact opposite, and the sex scene comes along which actually sort of accelerates the character and plot development. All sex scenes in the show are like that.

I had some reservations. Originally, there were more [sex scenes]. I wish I was as comfortable with my body as Lena [Dunham], but I’m not.”— Actor Corey Stoll to Vulture about shooting his Girls sex scenes with costar Andrew Rannells.
