You also have to wonder if it's a reflection of the society that it came from at the time it was written. I mean many countries tried to ban it I'm sure at the time, and it's just a fiction. How many real crimes and atrocities were committed at that time against real people by equally real people and were swept under the rug by society as not being as important as defending youth and society as a whole against the evil of Mr. Nabokov's book?
