The Queen of Hearts, a classic Dominatrix?

If you read Alice in Wonderland as an allegory of a young woman exploring her sexuality it actually makes more sense then it typically does.

Am I the only one to see this?

There's a fairly vile story written about this, actually. I loved the premise but it's like reading Uncle Tom's Cabin. I couldn't stand the voice of the author. Plus the sex was unsexy.

But anyway! Yes, I completely see what you mean and agree. Alice would make such a pretty sub, too.

No, you are not. If you haven't seen it, you might want to check out the movie Dreamchild, about Alice Hargeaves, which touches on that very issue.

I dunno, since hearing The Jefferson Airplane's song "White Rabbit", I have never been able to look at Alice in Wonderland at all without thinking about drugs!

Sex and drugs... Alice in Wonderland may be the most disturbing book in Western History. After the Bible, that is.

Why would this surprise anyone since he had a particular fondness for young girls - and its hotly disputed to this day whether that was a sexual fondness or not? Caroll I mean.
