All Adventurous Women Do is the third episode of Season 1 of Girls. It was directed and written by Lena Dunham.
Summary
Hannah learns she does indeed have HPV, so she tells Adam, but he claims to have gotten recently tested. So she decides to confront her prior boyfriend Elijah, who she dated in college. While watching a TV show about someone's "biggest baggage", Shoshanna reveals to Hannah that her biggest baggage is that she is still a virgin. Hannah assures Shoshanna that she will lose her virginity very soon, and says that her biggest baggage is her HPV diagnosis. Shoshanna tells Hannah that Jessa also has HPV, but mentions that Jessa claims "all adventurous women do". Later on, Hannah meets up with Elijah for drinks, and finds out that he has come out of the closet. They quickly get into an argument over several topics; including both Elijah's sexuality and Hannah's accusation that he gave her HPV, and Elijah states to Hannah that there is no male test for the disease. Meanwhile, Jessa begins her new job as a babysitter and makes a connection with the children's father. Marnie starts to fall for Booth Jonathan, an artist.

- Elijah: You might want to take some steps back through your other boyfriends, and not for nothing, maybe take a look at your dad.
- Hannah: You didn't just...?
- Elijah: I did.
- Hannah: In what way does my father read gay to you?
- Elijah: Ah, well, he has a stud in his ear.
- Hannah: He got it on a trip he took with his male friends... I heard what that sounded like, I know what that sounded like. You know what I'm going to do from now on, ask people if they're gay before I have sex with them.
