Alt-feminist Lena Dunham stands by her man!
I am now in clearly uncharted waters. Day Four of Laird Hamilton and Menstruation. No one has dared sail this far without turning back and I am alone.
Alone with alt-feminist Lena Dunham!
Common sense would have had her raging against Laird’s proclamation that sharks eat girls who are undergoing uterine rejuvenation. That she would have stomped her feet at a caveman spreading unkind rumors about lady parts but Lena has more balls than The Inertia and don’t care!
“Y’all I know Laird Hamilton shouldn’t have said sharks eat ladies with periods but he did once literally save me from drowning so I forgive!” Dunham posted on Twitter on Friday.
Dunham, 31, recounted the 2015 paddleboarding race ordeal in the Hamptons, when she “got off course and [Hamilton] somehow appeared as I was alone and panicking and dragged me to shore!”
A spy at the Hamptons Paddle & Party for Pink charity race told Page Six at the time, “It was a tough paddle … Windy and harder than expected.” Dunham ended up drifting into Mecox Bay.
Hamilton even left Dunham with some motivational words: “Then Laird Hamilton said to me ‘you may have finished last, but you never gave up so in my book you finish first.’”
Let’s read the rest of the Page 6 story here!
And how’s about that.
Before reading this piece I found Laird a goofy clown and Lena totally disgusting. After reading this I find them both heart-warming.
Or am I wrong? Has Day Four blunted my senses?

If I’m not mistaken, Lena Dunhem(?) wrote a book that talked about how she molested her sister. Sorry to rain on this thus sharkless week in california, but shit man
I HOPE LENA DUNHAM DIES OF GONORRHEA AND ROTS IN HELL
What’s worse than a feminist?
A vegan.
Sorry I mean a paddle boarder.
A SUP riding feminist? The worst…
How do you know if someone is a feminist, vegan, SUP rider?
Give them a second and they’ll tell you.
Give them 2 seconds and #vanlife
i will never forgive Laird, for saving Lena Dunham.
Jesus who doesn’t like pussy?
Looks like Lena’s not in good enough shape to put her foot in her mouth
Only just occurred to me that The Inertia’s readers might on the whole be open to Laird’s thoery, or not find the original comment offensive
It’s the the kind of pseudo shit they love to read
Inertia’s readers need to be on a register
I’m glad to see you get your second wind Chas!

Chas you’re risking toxic shock with the amount of time you’re leaving this story to marinate, time to pull the ‘plug’ and change it for a new fresh one I reckon
I’m thinking I can go two months. I’m an environentalist!
Ah! well in that case just don’t forget to rinse it out the home page slider every so often with a high performance web clip or some more news of surfstich’s impending and inevitable demise!
diva cup brah
Is that really my best way to go? Also, you and I should team up for a powerhouse article on this subject. A he said/she said. I can already feel that Pulitzer.
if you want to go full hippy, it’s diva cup all the way dude. idk it might attract sharks though!
we’d win all the things. all the things!
I tried but there wasn’t much warmth for me in the page 6 celebrity PR managment story.
If you can sail out of the “Bermuda Triangle” that is this story unscathed mentally, then it will be journalistic brilliance on a scale not seen!!!
Laird’s original conception for that shirt:

It’s alot harder than it looks… for Laird to realize “a lot” is two separate words.
This anecdote merely reinforces the fact the world is more fucked up than we could ever imagine.
“You may have finished last, but you never gave up, so in my book you finish first” says laird at a fucking SUP event in the hamptons. I am speechless. I am without speech.
Pretty amazing run. If this hits day five, you’re gonna have to change the avatars to tampons.
This confirms it: Beach Grit is the bleeding edge of satire.
