Ok Veeky Forums how can I buy and read Lolita without coming off as a creep? I'm married have kids and hate pedophiles but I hear this book is a fantastic read. Is there even a way to read this in public or should I keep this in my personal library shelf. Pic not related.

Holy shit just buy the book you retard. No one cares, especially not in a bookstore or they wouldn't put it on the fucking bookshelves. Do you really think if it was so socially taboo to buy the book it would always continually be stocked and restocked and restocked and shelved and shelved and shelved? And here's a cool thing, you can ask for a bag, so that once you leave the bookstore no one will be able to see what you bought.

Anyway enjoy reading user! Sorry if I was hard on you but just don't overthink it man

I care you fugly pedo bitch

I too have thought about this

Nah I appreciate the comment
This is what I'm afraid of.
I know! I just want to read how amazing it is I want to judge it not be reprimanded for it! Fuck!
I'm buying it fuck it

Guys who read Lolita also hire escorts because nobody will love them

My dad said if you read Lolita you'll go blind.

You seem very aggressive towards perceived pedophiles.
Also why are you afraid anyone could think you're a pedophile? It's not like you have repressed sexual desires for kids right?

No, I heard that your peckerwood falls off. My friend's ma said it happen to her uncle.

There is a sticky. It may help with your issue.

my dad told me if i wanted to seem cool and edgy i'd have to read it in french.

Taking the OP at face value (not necessarily true), it's clear that the most important social impact to the OP is how his immediate family might perceive him. The OP actually has a family of his own, which means that he has a lot to lose.

OP, the book that you're interested in reading is common as fuck and not-at-all controversial these days in the USA, except to raise eyebrows-possibly those of your wife. If your family is big on Jesus and you and your wife don't have total trust about each other, then you may want to put this /really benign/ curiosity off altogether. If you don't have total trust in your wife (and even that isn't good enough these days), then she could use the occasion of you reading and discussing Lolita a few years on to buttress whatever she wants in a divorce. Basically you already screwed up by getting married, when you should never have done that at all.

For the rest OP, just use common sense! If you don't want to be seen in public reading a book, then don't read the book in public! I myself have read several basic-bitch edgy books out of personal curiosity (Satanic Bible, that I don't care to discuss with various family and co-workers - just like you!

You don't even have to buy the damn book! Just find a pdf somewhere, and weigh your wife finding you reading a print copy that you honestly explained to her versus an internet history dig that you kept hidden. You take a chance either way.

A better out: bring it up gently and netflix the movie, which is also commonly available and totally uncontroversial these days. If Jesus and America are part of your life then you can also subtly frame the thing to the wife by citing: reading Lolita in Tehran" as First Amendment goodness.

Pedophiles are ugly and unwanted.

>!!!!!!
are you a loli or do you just write that way?

Interesting. Do you think pedophiles should repress their desires to not seem ugly and unwanted to other people?

...

Your defense mechanism about getting desires exposed is showing.
If you HAD fetishes would you want them to be exposed or repressed

Has nothing to do with their pedophilic tendencies. They're just naturally repulsive.

Interesting. Tell me about your love life.
Do you sometimes feel unwanted, ugly or... I don't know. Repulsive?

Completely unrelated describe a pedophiles outside appearance.

If I had fetishes I would want them to be repressed because my god forbids it.

Either really lanky, or obese.
and very smelly
Sometimes they have a stache

Would you know anyone in your personal life that matches that description? Maybe someone you spent time with as a child?
>really lanky
Or just maybe very tall compared to the person (child) that sees them?
How do you feel when you propoe violence towards pedophiles? Does it make you feel stronger?
You accidentally forgot to answer my question about your love life.

Joanna newsom's favourite author is nabokov. Its ok user.

Is it Na-bo-kov or Nabo-kov?

Well I think my marriage is strong enough and I hope this doesn't just flat out destroy my image of the family man. I just want to see what the fuss is about.

To everyone in here tonight, what's the most public as guest book you've read as of late?

Joanna is a blessing.

>accidentally

The long o sounds horrible

Escorts are just easier and more focussed than finding people. With other people the focus is on both of you, but with an escort it's all on you

If you're that bothered just buy the Library of America edition that has some other novels in the same volume

> a fantastic classic novel praised by everyone
> "uguu i feel im gonna be real weird about this lmao oni-chaaaan xxoo"

How about just fucking buy and read it, you closeted nonce-ponce

anyone who reads anything worth a shit already owns it, most people read it in school. it's not like the book says you have to become a paedophile, it's not like it's a how-to fucking guide. grow the fuck up, OP

>go to cafe or whatever
>open book
>????
>profit

Look what books google think it's like
Nobody will give a shit

Jesus christ, I cannot imagine how fucking boring your life must be.

>tfw repressed pedo wishes too stronk to buy a fucking universally acclaimed book

Buy some other Nabokov novels at the same time. Then have them in the same pile together. Then read them. Give Lolita away to a used bookstore after you've read it if it worries you that much.

If one of your kids finds out about your obsession concerning literary pedophilia, just tell them, "nothing personnel, kiddo".

This strategy is virgin-tier, akin to the kid buying condoms at the drug store with added items, like candy and shit, to feign nonchalance.
Just buy the book, OP.

>Ulysses next to fault in our cancer
xDDDDDD

Honors English as fuck, my dude.

Best answer.
