So recently I have been thinking about Lolita and how it doesn't seem very surprising to me that this man Humbert man is a Pedafile. I guess for me, I have just been watching WAY too much TV to a point where I am convinced that these things are normal. I'm sure a lot of you know what I am talking about when I share with you my experience with NBC's "To Catch a Predator". This show places an image in modern society, making it seem the norm to live amongst many perverted old men, interested in younger girls and boys. I also hear about ideas of rape amongst the Catholic Church various time, which is the basis for most of my moral ideals.
In addition, I feel as if I have been exposed to pedafilia in an early age, considering that when in 7th grade, one of my classmates was caught having sex with our 40 year old teacher. Messed up? Why yes it is. Maybe this is why I am not so shaken up by "Lolita". Sorry, I guess just isn't doing the bother for me as much as "Tropic of Cancer" or "Blue Velvet". Anyone else with some experiences like this?
