Being a male or a female reader does NOT define the way you look at this book. The story remains the same; it's just the way you think that sculpts your personal opinion on this book. Moreover, it's utterly wrong to say Lolita started the fire; she was just a broken infant who seeked love and needed male presence in her life-as a father not as asexual partner. And Humbert just took advantage of her weakness. You might say she provoked him but don't forget that you cannot rely on the narrator who might have oersexualized her every action. This book does not include the girl's perspective.
