[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can I ask what was so special about the original New Yorker piece that it went viral in the first place? (background: I never knew about this Cat person story or the scandals that ensued until this thread) Was it just that Roupenian's story was so relatable to many women, or something else[/quote] I think so. The story also led to typically immature online umbrage from men, so some purported feminists got obsessed with compiling *their* negative reactions and trying to fashion it into a moment. A lot of the success the author got was timing-reliant, which isn’t that unusual, I guess. [/quote]
