Just a tad evil.

The women’s fashion magazine Harper’s Bazaar is one of several periodicals rushing to re-purpose interviews by HBO star Lena Dunham with her feminist favorites from her “Lenny” newsletter. They just posted Dunham’s interview with the radical heroine Gloria Steinem, who’s plugging her new book, complete with a dedication to her abortionist in the 1950s as a “hero.” That’s the word both Dunham and Steinem employed.
DUNHAM: The dedication in your book, to the doctor who gave you an abortion, gave me full-body chills. How long had you been thinking about the concept of revealing his identity?
STEINEM: I often thought about him, but because he asked me not to reveal his name, it always stuck with me as a prohibition. And then it dawned on me that he is long dead, and this is a different day, and it’s time to thank him.
DUNHAM: And he’s a hero now, not a criminal.
STEINEM: He’s a hero.
