Walt Whitman

How come nobody talks about the fact that Walt Whitman fucked underage boys and came on their faces?

It's too much to type out one-handed

So did Allen Ginsberg

The answer is that no one wants to talk about how flawed the idea of statutory rape is considering there are 14 year olds more mature and considerate than some adults will ever be in their lives and some people on the upper end of their 20s with the judgement of a child. I'm not saying fucking teenagers isnt a morally gray issue but it certainly is not the same thing as fucking children.

The difference is Ginsberg was a hack who openly and proudly ripped off Whitman's schtick

I disagree but it hardly has any relevance to the acceptability of sexing young boys. kek

kek wat?
sauce

His poems about fucking boys are a good start

Look, I didn't read all the shit to which you're responding, but you are clearly an idiot. Ginsberg and Whitman were both influenced more by the times they lived in and their peers. They both have distinctive voices you could never confuse with each other. Besides, Ginsberg has a bit more Blake to these ears.

not him but ginsbergs being a hack is incontrovertible, it's like a universal law

>incontrovertible
Just because you showed us that you know how to use a thesaurus does not prove that you know how to make an argument.
