Why is this simplistic, middle school, tumblr-tier, pretentious trash taken seriously?

Well you know what they say Mods=Gods.

Don't forget John Green

Kaur BTFO

No one takes her seriously except the fanbase you mentioned. But every day we hear about her here.

please do

>tfw mention peterson in a thread for ez (you)s from pre-ironic pseuds pretending there's actual viable discussion to be had on Veeky Forums
derail a thread with ~1-3 posts, try it sometime

decent article, if not lacking a more analytical perspective on the structure, or lack thereof, of her "works"

>why is pop culture popular

Pretty much this. Kaur is not an establishment poet or an academic poet she’s someone that makes easy poetry. Really I see nothing wrong with Kaur and she may end up getting people into other poetry.

sounds like the mods are doing their goddamn jobs for once

The dominant view of poptimisim says we must take seriously anything targeted at teenage girls.

I can't wait until affirmative action leads to women becoming more involved and comfortable with literary tradition so they'll develop a fucking modicum of good taste.

- ban 'Veeky Forums roulette'
- ban peterson threads

I pity the ones that don't catch on.

its not

There won't be a board left

Real reason is because she's young, female and not white
No need to look further

And yet no one has written any Kaur/Peterson erotic literature.

>getting people into other poetry.
they'll move onto other tumblr poetry, not Celan or Oppen

fuck rupi kaur

Who?

If you got the chance to hatefuck Rupi Kaur, but only after an intensive two years of dating, would you do it?

Are you a bad enough dude to not get carried away on the affections of a terrible poet because you are so goddamned deprived of non-familial love?

Do you think you could bring yourself to use her like a rubber chicken and dump her out of a moving car after you've shared so many serendipitous moments, so many mediocre meals made memorable by not being alone?

underrated

(1) Modern feminism
(2) Modern political strategy
(3) The immense volume of brainlets which make up The Masses - most of whom do not read at, much less read good poetry
(4) It's short.

My ex bought me this book because she thought I would like it and I didn't have the heart to tell her I thought it was trash.

This is a discussion about the devaluation of literature and culture through universal literacy and huge accessibility of literature in a modern consumer market, and I think the conclusion is obvious. Veeky Forums should be above this populare shit, we should become aristocrats of the soul

You're supposed to keep track of the days between your periods and wear a pad/tampon before it comes. It's not even hard to do. How apathetic and lazy do you have to be in order to let period blood stain your sheets? Who the fuck did she force to take that picture? Disgusting.

it's probably fake blood on cheap sheets

The crazy kinds of feminists think that tampons are oppressive and that menstruation should be celebrated.

i am similar to rupi kaur but want to write good poetry. wat do? i have never really experienced love or abuse from men so that wont be in my poetry but idk im very tumblr despite hating tumblr. im like a mix of r9k and tumblr.

Because it sells. Rupi Kaur is likely a millionaire by now.

>You're supposed to keep track of the days between your periods and wear a pad/tampon before it comes. It's not even hard to do.

You can't wear a tampon before you start bleeding. It's a tube of cotton wool - put it in dry and it will stick and hurt and be extremely painful to take out. You can barely wear a tampon at the end of your period or on any other particularly light day. You are not supposed to wear them at night, ever.

A pad you could wear in anticipation with less discomfort, but given that periods almost never arrive 'on time' and there is usually a difference of a couple of days, sometimes even a week, this would still mean wearing a dry piece of cotton on your crotch for hours/days. It would rub your genitals and thighs raw.

However, there is also a 'liner' which is a very thin sanitary pad that lines your underwear and catches any excess blood from a pad or tampon. This you could wear in anticipation of your period and it wouldn't cause too much discomfort - allowing your clothes maybe a few hours of protection until the blood ran over.

However, consider the extra cost of this to add on top of the cost of your usual menstruation products and you can absolutely understand why a woman would rather go to bed as normal and then, if she wakes up with a bleed, just clean and wash her fucking pjs and sheets.

I think the reason people like Rupi Kaur, as terrible a poet and attention seeker she is, post things like this and get approval for it is precisely because of people like you - people who think they know what it's like to menstruate when they know jack shit. Getting a bit of blood on your sheets and pants is absolutely normal. For you to say it isnt is just putting fucking sheckles in her pockets, because you become her opposition.

Why do women feel a need to share their periods with the world? This is a major problem that occurs in every single society throughout history and is probably one of the biggest reasons as to why women were actively suppressed throughout time.

I am literally female. Nice text wall about your oversensitive vagina though.
