We read Lolita in 10th grade English. Then the movie came out. Universal reaction was that it was creepy and disgusting in both forms. Same with Peyton Place (incest). Yet they are now semi-classics.
intellectually teaching pedophilia
We rejected it, though. And I think most did, and still would.
It was on a list, we did have choices, but of course some liked a chance to read a scandalous book. Then they could inflict their book report on the others. :) This was an advanced placement class, so while we were typical 14 y.o.s, we weren't.
In HS we read Flowers In the Attic, much moar wholesome
Yikes! I am glad neither book was NOT ever a part of my school's curriculum.
And that my friend, is exactly how they groom and normalize.
So you are saying discovering this perversion and being led to reject it with your peers and an adult pointing out how wrong it is, is grooming?
It's more like casting out a net. you get some, but not all. They call it fishing not catching, for a reason. Many people have a secret self as well. Proclaim disdain while hiding different sentiments, perhaps even from themselves. I am of course not saying that you were groomed. Such a classroom experience is only one of many exposures to such themes some overt, many covert. TV adverts, movies (The Professional, comes to mind), Cartoons, Anime (Sailor Moon). Been going on and building over many decades.
It sounds like you are saying all media,, all literature, all social discourse, should be censored of any content that could give anyone sexual ideas. Besides the fact that teenagers are suddenly confused and consumed by sexual ideas already,, and need steering in a moral direction, how does it help anything to make bad choices verboten?
