>The better deal was that she could return to the surface annually
You are missing the point. Persephone is is abducted by Hades. Demeter then negotiates on her behalf to get a better "deal". She has zero agency throughout the myth and is objectified by mother, father and eventual husband.

My question is why do middle white chicks love this idea so much.

>The Christian archetype for heaven
I can't imagine Elysium being that much better than Olympus, but whatever you say.

>Why are you here bitching about an artist who doesn’t even post on this website?
Its not just this person, all of Tumblr cannot stop talking about it and it infects Twitter and Facebook as well. I just don't understand why its just this myth, nor do I get why you are so hostile lol

>Of course you don’t understand
No, I don't understand, but you aren't explaining why Tumblr likes this myth in particular, or why Persephone is teh goff kween, just reiterating what everyone already knows.
